Spring Flowers

 

I feel like I'm jumping the gun a little bit getting all geared up for Spring when it's still January but it's hard not to when its 80  and tank top, shorts, and flip flops weather. This mani is one that I did for my friend Rochelle. You may remember I featured another mani of her's last week on the blog. Well I've sucked her into the nail polish world and obsessed and she was so thrilled to be featured on the blog last week, I decided to do it again :0). This was three coats of Milani Hi-Red from last year's Spring 3D Holographic collection. She wanted flowers on top so I free handed three daisies using OPI Alpine snow as the petals and China Glaze Lemon Fizz and the center on her ring fingers as accent nails. Very cute and very Spring like. :0)

Milani Hi-Tech

 

Happy Hump Day! It's warm and sunny here again in LA.. it's supposed to get up into the low 70's today which means it's holo weather! This is Milani Hi-Tech from last year's Spring collection that they ended up putting into the core line. I bought this right when it came out but for some reason I haven't worn it until now. I can't figure out why the heck not cause this polish is gorgeous! My pictures aren't completely accurate, in real life this is an almost neon lemon-lime green but in my photos the color shows up way more dulled. Don't be fooled, this polish is super bright! Perfect for Spring and the sunny weather.. kinda reminds me of grass :0) The holo in this is big and scattered, more along this lines of the China Glaze Kalediscope line. Application was good, I let it dry a bit in between coats for about a minute or two to avoid dragging of the holo particles and it came out just fine. This was three coats for perfection.

Have a happy day!!
