COMMENTS:
Every once in a while I put on a color that asks to be left alone - no stamping, layering or other nail art. In this case I gladly obliged because it's so rich and gorgeous on its own.

This color looks so fresh and juicy on my nails. I added dots in a similar color with a Sakura Gelly Roll pen.
**  Este color se ve tan fresca y jugosa en mis uñas. He añadido los puntos de un color similar a una pluma de Sakura Gelly Roll.

Another new one I picked up. I hoped this would have more visible shimmer but it was slightly disappointing.

I noticed that NYC had a few new colors out and picked some up. This is the first one that caught my eye. The shimmer is really pretty but it takes a few coats.
**  Noté que NYC tenía unos pocos colores nuevos fuera y recogí algunos. Este es el primero que captó mi atención. El brillo es muy bonita pero se requiere algunas capas.

COMMENTS | COMENTARIOS:
I recently discovered that the Sears near me sells nail polish! This is a green from NYC that I haven't seen before but I think is from over a year ago. It's such a beautiful bright green, and reminded me of my favorite green nail polish - Ulta Limelight, so I decided to put it on my index finger.
** Recientemente he descubierto que la Sears vende cerca de mi esmalte de uñas! Este es un verde de Nueva York que no he visto antes, pero creo que es de más de un año. Es un hermoso color verde brillante, y me recordó a mi verde favorito de esmalte de uñas - Limelight Ulta, así que decidí ponerlo en el dedo índice.

I really like the look of embedded glitter, so decided to use this otherwise useless nail polish for it.
** Me gusta mucho el aspecto de brillo incorporado, por lo que decidió utilizar esta esmalte de otra manera inútil de uñas para ello.

I started with 2 coats of the white
** Empecé con 2 capas del blanco

Then 1 coat of glitter
** A continuación, una capa de brillo

1 more coat of white
** Una capa más de blanco

And one final coat of white.
** Y una última capa de color blanco


I love that the silver glitter turns white because I don't have any white glitter and prefer it to the silver anyway!
** Me encanta que el brillo de plata se vuelve blanco porque no tiene ningún brillo blanco y prefieren que la plata de todos modos!

The NYC polish took 3 coats to become opaque, but will be useful with glitter.  I sponged Zoya Envy and Dree over it, but didn't like the way it looked (I overdid the sponging), so covered it all with a coat of the gold glitter.  I like it, but wish I had a bit more green close to my cuticles.
** El esmalte de NYC tomó 3 capas para convertirse en opacas, pero será útil con brillo. Yo esponja Zoya envidia y Dree sobre ella, pero no le gustaba cómo se veía (yo exageró la esponja), por lo que lo cubrió todo con una capa de brillo del oro. A mí me gusta, pero quisiera tener un poco más verde cerca de mis cutículas.

New York Color (NYC) - Park Ave.

APPLICATION: Smooth
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Yes
SOURCE: One of the drugstores (Rite Aid, CVS or Walgreens), or Target or Walmart - can't remember!
COMMENTS: I came back late from the gym and had very little time to do a manicure, so I pulled out something I hoped would be quick and easy and wouldn't require cleanup. This fit the bill!  It reminded me a bit of OPI - Parlez-Vous OPI as I wore it the next day, so I did a comparison before removal, they're not as close as I thought.

NYC - Sun Goddess

APPLICATION: Smooth
COATS: 2
TOPCOAT?: Yes
SOURCE: Walgreens/Rite Aid/CVS/Target - can't remember
COMMENTS: I'm trying to go through the main rainbow colors for my next polishes, so after my red mani, I had to choose something orange. The treadmill was waiting for me, so it had to be quick. In addition, I didn't want the orange to look like part of a leftover halloween costume, so it couldn't be a standard orange creme. Sooo... I grabbed this wonderful textured shimmer from NYC. Sun Goddess is not quite opaque at two coats, but that doesn't bother me because it's gorgeous!

Oh yah, and I didn't bother with cleanup...






UP NEXT: Something yellow - ish...
