Now that the Golden Oldie Thursday is over, this week a new challenge of the Crumpet's Nail Tarts starts: the 52 Week Pick N Mix Challenge. Every week there will be two themes (pattern and color), and every participant can choose to either do one, showing both themes in two posts or combining both themes in one post. This weeks themes are two color gradient and teal. I chose to combine both themes in one mani (using only oldie polishes).
On my pinkie, index and thumb I started with two coats of Essie Naughty Naughtical, a vibrant aqua green with glassfleck shimmer. On my ring and middle finger I used two coats of P2 Opulent, a blackened green textured polish.
For the gradient I used Naughty Naughtical and Trophy Wife (also by Essie), a teal shimmer. One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top made the gradient look a little smoother.
Opulent is one of the prettiest polishes ever!
ReplyDeleteI really love it, too, and I'm so glad I could buy it on one of my visits to Germany.
DeleteAll the polishes you used for this manicure are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Andrea!
DeleteA successful challenge if you ask me, the result is lovely.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Melissa, you always make me smile and blush with your comments <3
DeleteThe texture really compliments the gradient :).
ReplyDeleteI wasn't quite sure about the combo, but apparently I chose the right polishes :-)
