2-3

I couldn't decide whether to keep this one or not - at some angles it looks like a shimmery veil for my nails, and at other it makes my nails look dirty...

I was quite disappointed in this one, but didn't want to start my manicure from scratch, so I used some Mia Secret tint mixes to give it color. It was okay, not too exciting.
**  Yo estaba muy decepcionado con este, pero no quería empezar mi manicura de la nada, así que usé un poco de mezclas de Mia Secret tints para darle color. Estaba bien, no demasiado emocionante.

I decided to try a combination similar to my last one, but this time in yellow. At first it looked like badly stained nails, haha! I wore it for one day as a gradient, then got tired of the stained look and put the Mia Secret yellow tint over the whole nail.
**  Me decidí a probar una combinación similar a mi último, pero esta vez en amarillo. Al principio parecía que las uñas muy manchados, jajaja! Me lo puse por un día como un gradiente, a continuación, se cansó de la mirada manchada y poner el tinte de Mia Secret amarilla sobre toda la uña.

** 2 º día






My nails after, with just base coat. The tint didn't stain them

Finger Paints - Scenery Greenery, Tough Art to Follow

APPLICATION: Smooth, and dried quickly
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Indicated on photos
SOURCE: Sally Beauty Supply
COMMENTS: This is a combo I'd planned to wear earlier in the week. Gorgeous greens! Every time I put a Finger Paints polish on, I ask myself why I don't wear them more often. They go on nicely, dry rapidly, and come with built in shine. Scenery Greenery is the true green that is on most of the nails. Tough Art to Follow is the vampy olive green. I added dots to my accent nails with an unnamed Girls in America (G.I.A.) green with gold shimmer.

Sally Hansen New Lengths - Brownstone Creme

APPLICATION: Smooth
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Yes
SOURCE: Dollar Tree
COMMENTS: This is a rich chocolate brown that dries a little darker than bottle color. This particular "antique" collection by Sally Hansen is notorious for drying really slowly. It didn't really bother me - I just used my nail fan between coats and then topped with a quick dry topcoat. I later topped my left hand with an unnamed gold/taupe glitter from Girls In America (G.I.A.). My right hand got the Sally - Hansen Hidden Treasure treatment.
