Layering experiment with Nubar 2010 and Pure Ice Oh! Baby

So alright. I have a bit of a problem with having things in chronological order, and as such, I have been posting in the order in which I wore these manis, with the exception of the Neverland Nail Blog nail art contest and just a couple others. This isn't necessarily something that is important, I just wanted to throw it out there I guess, since today it's rainy and grey and sad outside but the pictures I'm posting today are from the end of March when it was nice outside! Hahaha.

Today's post is a layering experiment! I always love doing these kinds of things because I never really know how they're going to turn out. For this, I used one coat Sinful Colors Black on Black, two coats Pure Ice Oh! Baby, one coat Nubar 2010, one coat Oh! Baby, one coat Nubar 2010. In that order. :P 


All pictures were taken outside in the shade. I recommend clicking on them to make them bigger. :3


Straight on

At a slight angle, Nubar 2010 shift more obvious

Extreme angled back, Oh! Baby shift blue, purple, pink more obvious


Side shot! This way, you kind of get the whole effect.

I took these pictures over a span of about two days, so there is some pretty terrible chip wear... This mani didn't last to incredibly long since it was so thick. :/ It was fun while I had it on though.

What do you think? What's been your favorite layering combo you've tried?

Pure Ice Rio and Sally Hansen Multi-Faceted

When I was home for spring break a couple weeks ago, I went to Walgreen's since there isn't one where I go to school and I saw this little Sally Hansen display of polishes I didn't recognize! Usually I see the previews or press releases online (since I'm always on here looking at polish, lol) but I hadn't seen any of the polishes anywhere online. I must have missed it somehow! Since my hands were already full with a small Sinful Colors haul, I only had room in my budget for one, Multi-Faceted. I decided to pair it with an untried I got a while ago, Pure Ice Rio.

The following pictures are three coats Rio and one coat Multi-Faceted.


Rio is a squishy hot pink jelly with blue shimmer. Loved how bright it was! Multi-Faceted has medium sized silver, black, and iridescent glitter.



Since I didn't layer it over a darker color, my camera was having difficulty picking up the iridescent bits on the nail. Sooo here's a bottle shot for fun!


Thanks for reading!
