Pink And Purple Swirls...

- This was going to be a ziplock bag mani but it failed as that and to try and save it I tried doing a drag marble.  I think my problem with the ziplock mani was my base polish so I'll try again some other time.


- I really liked how my thumb turned out.

The polishes were:
Purple - China Glaze - Coconut Kiss
Pink - Nina Ultra Pro - Fuchsia Rage
My base color was Revlon Powder Puff.

Sorry I've been slack in my posts, just a lot going on, I do have stuff to post, just can't seem to motivate myself at all right now and I'm sorry.

I Need A Refresh-Mint In Nice, France.

 - I did another drag marble last night, in a slightly different way than I did my first attempt before.

I used Essie Nice is Nice and WnW I Need A Refresh-Mint.  On the first two fingers I did the Essie as my base polish which honestly I think I liked the look of better, the pink with mint on top but the pink wasn't really opaque enough to do it without layering it on really heavy and fast to get the mint on next and start swirling.
- My other hand, again my hands kind of vary in how they look, and my index already has a little chip, seriously, blah.  And the polish isn't entirely flush everywhere from the swirling.

I think it's pretty though and I'm proud of it.

And I hadn't cleaned these up yet, I know, sorry.

And you may also notice my nails are shorter, again, I've been working on downsizing and cleaning and getting rid of things, and I broke one and rage cut them instead of rage quitting.

30 Day Untried Challenge - Day 8 - Caitlin + Petra = BFF's.

- I tried doing a drag marble technique since I fail so hardcore at water marbling. On my right hand I dotted Zoya Petra on top of Zoya Caitlin which was my main color, and then used a tooth pick to drag it around.

- On my left hand I put on Zoya Caitlin and then dotting Zoya Petra right onto my nail with the brush and then used a tooth pick the drag it around.


- I liked the right hand better last night but today I liked the left hand more. This was my first time trying this and I think with practice I can get somewhere in the middle of these two methods and have it be perfect. But I thought it wasn't too bad for my first try.
