Unappetizing to say the least. I grabbed it and slowly started shaking and rolling it.
It's called Leather Creme and it's a pretty nice neutral milk chocolate brown.
Then I found a bottle of the Sally Hansen Salon old square bottle called Mist You. A light apricot that is so invisibly sheer, I knew there was no reason to really buy it. Of course I saw a bit of a flash, ho hum.
Put them together:
Hello Gorgeous!
Wow! What a nice surprise that turned out to be! More of that "interference" action. It's a lovely purple shimmer with blue and pink particles!
Thanks for reading my little nail polish journal!
Love this combination!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love your layering, it turned out awesome <3
ReplyDeleteHey thanks!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so surprised by this one! Mist You is also nice and thin, so it really lets the base come through.
I think someone on MUA Nail Board used it in a franken and the purple really popped. Nice!
That's a riot! I never would've thought that purple would show up. Beautiful purple.
ReplyDeleteI have a bunch of the old Sally Hansen cremes, both from their original debut and from DT finds - but I've NEVER thought to try layering over them! Cool!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your comments!!
ReplyDeleteYes, tty layering. Some sheers are useless except s bases for frankens.
I think someone on MUA took Mist You and added a dark color to it and the purple popped out. I can't recall who, but it was a nice franken!
I just love all your layering discoveries. I've been stuck on your blog for like a week. I keep coming back to read more and now I'm reading some of them for a second time. lol
ReplyDeleteIt all started... I just laughed out loud again because that beginning there sounds so dramatic. But it did all start when somehow I wound up on one of your posts about layering the SH Opals. My jaw dropped. I thought those suckers were completely worthless! My Dollar Tree had like a billion or two of them, and I was so excited thinking they were something like the Nail Prisms, but instead they're just really sheer and 10 layers isn't enough for opacity. So disappointing, until I saw your layering!
I'm looking forward to some layering experiments of my own now. I do like layering, but so far I've mostly stuck to glitters or the ones that say they are top coats and didn't even consider layering the Opals.
Right now I have Christmas Tree fingers. I'm wearing WnW Morbid with ChG Golden Enchantment layered on top. I wanted to see if it would work for Christmas day, and yes, it will.
Hello Donna!!! You are so awesome to read through my crazy blogging! I have to say that I really was so sad when I went nuts on all those opals, too. Then I tried them on black, I think I saw someone somewhere do it. I've got more coming up!
ReplyDeleteThere are some gems in those Opals. I think some could also be frankens: add some dark purples, navy or black and the shimmer might pop. I recently found a second wave of these and want to experiment with them!
I LOVE Morbid, and your combo is awesome!! Do you have a blog, I'd love to follow it!
:D
I should post a: Post your blog post. I am such a backwards blogger wrt technology! My contact page is an epic fail and I still can't figure it out!!
Ok, enough already!!!
So glad you enjoyed the opals!
