Feeling kinda girly
Feb. 7th, 2012 05:37 pmThere are a lot of hair, make-up, and nail art pins on Pinterest and I think they finally got to me. It's been a long time since I painted my nails (and boy does the lack of practice show) and I've been seeing a lot of interesting takes on the French manicure so I decided to play.
Yeah... I think it's been a decade or more since I did a French, so this is more a "tipped" effect. Oh well, I mostly wanted to test how these two polishes looked together anyway.
[The weird light reflections are due to one being light from a window that looks out on woods and the other being an overhead light fixture.]
Bed color: Sally Hansen "Hard as Nails" in Rose Wine
Tip color: Sally Hansen "Chrome Nail Makeup" in Cinnabar
I like the effect. I also have the Chrome in Platinum and Royal Purple so I may try white with platinum tips later. I'm lacking in purple creme colors though, and I don't think the chrome effect would work next to a pearl, so the purple version may have to wait on me bothering to buy a creme purple for the bed color.
