Double Franken Green and Brown

I had a bottle of Sinful's Glass Pink sent to me in a swap and I tried it out here.

It is a glassy "glitter" particle which seems to have a golden shimmer feel. Why I frankened it, I don't know, I did like the resulting layering, but then again, I have a lot of these and it had a gap from previous use and I began to see what I would come up with.

First, I emptied the bulk of an Art Deco kelly green creme into it.

The green was really great, strong pigmentation yet with a base already existing in the Sinful bottle, it wasn't too dense and the shimmer/glitter/glassy particles emerged and did their work!

Although a little tending toward the sheer side, the payoff really was nice: golden warm shimmer.
Three coats, easy to use.

I decanted some of this concoction into another bottle and began phase two. Perhap a bride for my green franken-monster!

I did want a brown, something that was chock-a-block full of that glassy shimmer, so I started adding blue and some red. I wanted to keep it khaki leaning, but I went a little wild on the red - a dark burgundy as I recall - and ended up with this brown.

Since frankening is always more alchemy than chemistry with me, I though I better end while I've got something workable, and not a blackened mess.

Meanwhile, here is the resulting franken on the nail:

I feel like I'm walking away from this experiment with a win.

The glassy particles work their magic and play with the light, keeping the whole thing feeling like autumn leaves.

Thanks for reading my little nail polish journal!
