Fourth of July Nail Art

Amy — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 05:22:14 +0000

I’m a nerd, so I love doing themed nail art. ~~I can’t find my camera cord at the moment, but I will post higher quality pictures as soon as I do!~~ I also did my toes ~~and am considering posting those here~~ The bottom two photos are my left and my right big toes respectively. I cropped them so you could only see the nail art, so hopefully that doesn’t skeeve anyone out too badly! (I know it’s a little bit of a faux pas to post pedicure pictures, but I do nail art on my toes, too!) Here goes…

USED:
OPI Russian Navy
OPI Dorothy Who?
China Glaze Ruby Pumps
MAC Vestral White
White nail art striper
Black nail art striper

Color Club Revvvolution NOTD

God, I love this color! It’s the first and only Color Club polish I own, and I know I have to have more. Revvvolution applies smoothly and thinly, and is opaque in just one coat. The color is a dark gunmetal grey filled with prismatic specks of glitter. In the sunlight, the colors of the rainbow appear on the pieces of glitter as you turn your finger. It’s gorgeous.
