This manicure was hard work.  It took some time to accomplish… and that was my goal.

I’m testing out Seche Vite UV topcoat… used alongside the companion mini/portable UV lamp. I wanted a manicure that was tedious, and one that I felt I would really enjoy viewing for the long haul.  This fit the bill.

My aim is long-lasting shine, and chip free results.  I’ll let you know how the topcoat holds up.

Good Night, Sleep Tight

What I want more than anything right now is just a REALLY good restful night of sleep.   The resting part of the evening has been evasive this week.  Sad smile

I’m tired.  Not all that sleepy, but my body (and mind) want rest!

Sinful Colors:

“Black on Black”,Midnight Blue”, Out of This World”, Pull Over”

IMG_2796The base color is black, then I sponged on the midnight blue from the middle to the tip of the nail, and then sponged the silver on the tips…. After that, I added the crescent moons, stars and a couple of “zzz’s”…

 

 

 

 

 

IMG_2802that one star looks like a snowflake… and well, it IS snowing outside again, lol.  So, it’s alllll good. Smile

 

 

Now it’s time for me to go to bed!

Night Night.

STOP!

Stop signs have been lingering in my thoughts.  I had to get my vehicle emissions test done, and get my license plate renewal sticker.  I guess traffic stuff has just been on my mind.

When I looked up a stop sign image online, I came across this website with the history of stop signs.  Interesting.

Crayola…..–ish

My nails wanted to make a statement.  Wanted to be “heard”.

So I pulled out bold and bright primary & a couple secondary colors in the loudest temperature I owned. And let them scream.

For some odd reason the blue base in the purple is so strong it’s difficult to differentiate it from the blue in the pictures.  If I can get a clear picture to show PURPLE instead of blue, I will post asap!

It’s basic…… Crayola.

blurry but captured the color
