Hubby's Picks: The one with chewed up bubblegum (HP10)

So two tings. One is that I realized I was using HB to name my Hubby's Picks when I should have been using HP. Ooops :) The second is I realized why I don't like Sally Hasen Trust Mauve. It looks like chewed up bublegum that someone stuck on a table and it sat in the sun. Mmmm yum right? Anyhow onto the good stuff:
Layering: Since Zoya Kotori and Wet N' Wild Blue Wants To Be A Billionaire (good grief that name is looooooong) are both sheer blues with micro glitter particles I decided to simply layer them. That looked AMAZING!
 This is slightly blurred so you can see all those deep blue and holographic particles interacting. Next I dotted Sally Hansen Trust Mauve on my nail line - honestly it has a truly fantastic formula. It's pretty sheer painted on it's own but builds beautifully. It just looks like chewed up bubblegum.
Then I tipped it with Wet N' Wild Ready To Pounce. Now Ready To Pounce is a gorgeous and deeply rich purple that glows with depth...and chips nearly instantly. So sad for such an intensely beautiful purple.

All in all not my favorite Hubby's Picks but totally not the worst (remember the spider?). Hope your summer is going great!

More On The Prowl: New Year's Eve manicure

Wait....it's October? Well when I did this manicure my husband LOVED it and said it reminded him of New Year's Eve! I think it's cute when he names my manicures or picks out my colors:
This is Correction Tape and On The Prowl. Easily my two favorites from the collection (of course I don't have Behind Closed Doors which saddens me GREATLY).
On The Prowl is a glowy, deep purple with subtle shimmer. Not an easy one to clean up but so worth the hassle anyhow.
 

Correction tape is a lovely assortment of multicolored hexes in pinks, purples, blues, and golds that is unique and paints on surprisingly nicely for the size of glitter. It has a clear somewhat jelly base that the glitter suspends in nicely. 2 coats here.
