Rimmel French Rose jelly sandwich

Do you ever go back and just pull out your older polishes? You know those cheapies that set you on the journey toward nail obsession? I didn't really mean to start digging, but I did and came across my bottle of Rimmel French Rose. It's a super sheer french manicure color. Barely a peachy-pink tint to it. I don't even remember why I bought it. BUT it dries shockingly fast with a flawless formula so I love it.

I decided to do two coats of French Rose for the base to give it a little more opacity. Then I sandwiched Sally Hansen Twinkle, Twinkle between that and one more layer of French Rose. I love the speckled look and the French Rose is sheer enough to let the sparkle come through. I accented with Sally Hansen Green Tea for the sweet hearts.

I also can't help but love the the peek through of the nail line. It somehow adds to the sweetness of this manicure. Want to hear the best part? This is three days of wear!

How do you feel about the more delicate looks on nails? Is Rimmel a go to brand for you?

I give you manequin hands

I know right! On me of all people. But I bought Rimmel French Manicure Pro in French Rose back when I first started collecting simply because as a newbie you have to have all styles right? Needless to say I never used it until just recently. I can not get over the stunning simplicity.

Application is three coats and it's so gorgeous! I don't understand why I'm so drawn to how simple it is. The accent is messy, sadly, and done in Essie Licorice and an unnamed copper color from Maurice. The tape method is flawed but I'm working on a fix for it.

Weirdly awesome right? What do you think about this style?
