funky french!! blue and black

hey all!
today we have a great funky french. I was looking for something to do with my 2 day old blue franken mani, so i decided to add some tips, to hide the chipping. Something simple, using tape. I have see this style on many other blogs and wanted to try it myself!

pretty pretty!!

the matte definitely gives it a more subtle look while the glossy is more sharp.

do you guys want me to do more nail art? which is your favorite, glossy or matte?

Lime lights over black :)

after a very tiring and busy week and a half......

Im back!!

i had so much fun this morning swatching and taking pics!!!

i have some great polishes lines up

starting with......."Lime Lights", a Sally Hansen; hard as nails: Xtreme Wear 

lol thats a long name

very sorry but i did this last night and the lighting is a bit off

and the whole thing is a bit messy anyway.....

2 coats black (aka Professional Nail Lacquer's "Little Black Dress)

 here on the thumb is 3 coats of  lime lights

then, out course, 1 coat of lime lights over black

here it is the next day ;)

here you can see its blue-ish qualities

Lime Light is a sheer green/blue/turquoise shimmer

by itself, it has  a pearly finish ver similar to its sister "Marine Scene" (which i'll show you tomorrow)

I'm sure that if i took the time to do the 6 coats it would need to be opaque, it would be very pretty

but layering is nicer for me ;)

you know when a color is either turquoise or dark green? well this mani flashes in between

it also has a ocean-y feel

i think you have to be in the right mood to wear this combo.....

before, i have tried this over purple for a very nice affect and a more easily wearable color

thanks for watching!
