Allo polish Pals!
Sorry for the delay in posting, how are
you doing? Have you any exciting plans for the
weekend? I'm feeling a little old and achy today but that didn't stop
me from testing out my new light for photography! I had such a cute
idea for some nail art but was I happy with the result? NO!
Haha, I guess its in my nature to be displeased with my efforts.
Still, it was more practice with my 1 euro acrylic paints! It was
near impossible to show you this with a shiny top coat too. I showed
my nails to Mr Bravo and said I was going to call my raccoon Mila
Raccoonis, he gave me quite the face/palm

| With A Shiny Top Coat. |
On my index and pinkie finger I started
with two coats of Essence's 'Off To Miami!', added a diagonal stripe
of Essence's 'Grey-t To Be Here'. I finished off those with a
beautiful coat of Barry M's 'Crystal Glaze' flakies. On all my other
nails I started with two coats of 'Grey-t To Be Here', 'Crystal
Glaze' and used cheap acrylic paints to create my raccoons and Apple.
BIG mistake... I applied
Hema's 'Matte Topcoat' which left horrible horrible white chalky
parts :( I really wish I had grabbed my Model's Own Pro Matte Top
coat..but hey ho.
What do you think of my
raccoon nail art? Have you ever seen a raccoon in real life?
Have a great start to your weekend, Tomorrow I'll be showing you a swatch which has been picked out by my facebook fans from a choice of three polishes. Join on facebook to have your vote! :)
