Nails Of The Day - Color Club Bizerk Turq and NK Green Apple
The NK Green Apple has a fish scale quality that really intrigued me.
I was disappointed to find out it was uber sheer. I laid down a creamy opaque turquoise base and hoped for the best. The kicker is, I was so sleepy, I ended up with bedsheet nails. LOL I'll definately re-do this when I am not sleepy. It was so pretty! I need to pick up a can of that DeMert Instant dry stuff. I haven't used it in decades, but it really made quick work of polish. I used to also use the Sally Hansen Insta-dry. I could have sworn by that stuff. I have fallen off of my quick dry game.

Shrek Inspired - Nails Of The Day - Sinful Colors Show Me The Way and Milani Green Glow
I rocked a green peasant jersey knit top today with my peacock feather earrings & of course, peacock colors on my lids & nude lips. Although green is my all time favorite color, I was a little hesitant about wearing these colors. I draw the line at green polish on the toes though. Right away I think "FUNGUS".
I used my standard procedure...
Base Coat
3 coats of color
Top Coat
I found the Sinful Colors Show Me The Way to be a bit flakey, especially if I did not wait long enough between coats. This is tricky because I am sometimes impatient.
The Milani Green Glow was more sheer than I anticipated. Even with 3 coats, I could still see the VNL (visible nail line). GRRRRR
This photo was taken in Direct Sunlight with my Treo. Can you see the glitter better because of the blur?
Unless otherwise noted, the pictures were taken in diffused natural sunlight.
Do you ever wear green nail polish?
