Mia Secret Tint - Yellow, and "Orange"

COATS:
2 (yellow), 3 (orange)
SOURCE:
Beauty supply store in downtown Los Angeles
COMMENTS:
I felt like wearing another one of these looks with the silver (Mia Secret Storm of Glitter) base. For the orange I started with one coat of the red tint followed by two coats of yellow.

Mia Secret Tint - Red, over Storm of Glitter - Silver

COATS:
2
SOURCE:
A naily supply store in Downtown LA
COMMENTS:
I always meant to someday wear each of my tints from this brand on its own over the silver glitter like this. These tints turned out to be nice, but would have been even nicer if they could also be used as bases for stamping (unfortunately they bleed into lighter colors).

As I applied this I went "oooh!"  I really enjoyed wearing this color, and topped it by water marbling a linear holographic polish to get a super thin layer (shown in last photo).

COMMENTS:
I was in a bit of a dark mood, so wanted it to translate to my nails. I chose this trusty 1-coater with shimmer winking through to help alleviate what I was feeling.  Then I added more sparkle because it was helping!

I couldn't decide which of these to wear first so decided to layer the holographic one on two nails. The color change is still visible through it.

I was surprised at how much darker this was on the nail versus in the bottle. I topped it with some shimmery flakies to brighten it up a bit.
