Matte Foil? Yes Please!

I tried out a new foil from Revlon, which I thought was very pretty. Then I decided to matte it, because I'd never done that with a foil. I LOVE it. I'm very addicted to matte.

First Franken!

I am so excited to show you all my first franken! It's shimmery and frosty and light. I'm calling it Angel Wings. If I was ever to have a brand of nail polish, which is unlikely, I would name it Bonfire. 


Angel Wings (3 coats)

Depending on the light it has a pink, purple, blue or green sheen. I tried to capture that in the pictures, but it's hard to see.

I would appreciate any criticism or advice!

Love, Bethany

Red-y, Set, Go!

My boyfriend gave me this fabulous red for Christmas. It's name is perfect because red geraniums really are this color!


Base: Essie - Geranium
Gold: China Glaze - Champagne Bubbles

Red is my favorite color! Yay!

Love, Bethany

Blue Me Away

I've seen glitter gradients that start from the bottom of the nail instead of the top, but when I saw the reverse gradient on Enamel Girl I wanted to try it!


Blue: Ulta - Blue Streak
Glitter: Spoiled - Jewelry Heist
Top Coat: Seche Vite


My only problem was trying to take a good picture. The glitter is copper, silver, and turquoise. I think it just looks gray in the pictures :(

If you want to see a great picture of Jewelry Heist go to The Collegiate Nail. She has a picture of it in the bottle and it's great!

At least the blue is pretty!

Love, Bethany

Shimmer Shimmy!

I bought new glitters and shimmers from the $1.99 brand Spoiled. I love them! I layered two of the colors over a grey so you could see! 


Base: Revlon - Graceful
Blue: My Saturn Broke Down (1 coat)
Teal on accent nails: Use Protection (1 coat)


Isn't the title of the teal strange, but health conscious? Lol!

I should have tried it with two coats too so I could see what it looked like, but I didn't think about it until I had already taken it off.

Here's a picture of Revlon - Graceful without the shimmer:

I love grey!

Isn't great for such a low price??

Love, Bethany

Godiva

This mani definitely reminded me of chocolate, and who doesn't love chocolate?


Base: Revlon - Espresso
Gold: Ulta - High Roller
Top Coat: Seche Vite

Yum!

Love, Bethany

No Place Like Home

This nail polish reminded me of Dorothy's ruby slippers!


Sally Hanson Gem Crush - Cha-Ching!

It has small red sparkles and bigger silver sparkles!

Click your heels together and say "there's no place like home."

Love, Bethany
