As I must do every so often, I reached into some of my aging collection and pulled this one out to wear. Then I decided to try out some layered stamping and finished it off with some messy freehand lines.

I wasn't ready to take my last mani off yet, but needed a change. Enter Night Pearl, a bit of glitter, and some matte topcoat...

I've always wanted to try a manicure that looks like stained glass, but knew it would be difficult if I used just nail polish. I used gel pens for this and maybe next time I'll attempt to use nail polish. I could only wear it for one day because my eyes got tired of seeing so much color, haha!
**   Siempre he querido probar una manicura que se parece a las vidrieras, pero sabía que sería difícil si sólo utiliza esmalte de uñas. He utilizado plumas de gel para esto y quizás la próxima vez voy a tratar de usar esmalte de uñas. Yo sólo podía llevarlo durante un día porque mis ojos se cansaron de ver tanto color, jajaja!

I was in a rush putting these on, and made a bit of a mess of them. Frustrated, I didn't even bother with my right hand. I applied regular topcoat over them, then another coat of matte.
**  Yo estaba apurada ponerlos en adelante, e hizo un poco de un desastre de ellos. Frustrada, yo ni siquiera me molestó con mi mano derecha. He aplicado capa final regular a lo largo y después otra capa de mate.

Wanting to try another one of my old nail polishes, I wore this one. It smelled so bad that I'm going to get rid of it after this! The color is very interesting, but looked strange with my skin tone, so I stamped over it with black.
**  Queriendo pruebe otro de mis viejos esmaltes de uñas, me puse esta. Se olía tan mal que yo voy a deshacerme de él después de esto! El color es muy interesante, pero tenía un aspecto extraño con mi tono de piel, por lo que lo estampado con negro.

This polish is so beautiful in the bottle! Unfortunately, the shimmer doesn't show up as well on the nail. The best thing is that it is opaque in just 1 coat!

**  Este esmalte es tan hermosa en la botella! Lamentablemente, el brillo no se presenta tan bien en el clavo. Lo mejor es que es opaco en sólo 1 capa!

All of these polishes except for the Bettina are recent purchases. I wanted to compare them as well as put them together for a calming manicure. I think I succeeded - especially after applying the matte topcoat!
