Hello sweeties! How are you Today?
We have a little sunshine today, and I think it is a great time to share with you an "Under the sea" themed manicure made with Essence nail polish "Galactic Glam". I know the Summer is almost ended now, but I think I still have just the time for one last little seashell!
For this manicure I painted two coats of Essence Galactic glam and let them dry well. In fact I wore this polish by itself for 3 days! without topcoat! and snapped a pic on the third day, take a look:
Isn't that amazing? Wow! I'm impressed with the lasting power of this nail polish. This colour reminds me of Zoya Charla, it is not a dupe though because Charla has large golden flecks. But a pretty close shade for 2,75 CHF :) As there was a bit of tip wear, I decided to cover that up with a bit of gradient sponging using Zoya Muse from the Bubbly collection and Zoya Ziv, which is a golden foil. As a final touch I added two little golden seashells from Born Pretty Store on my ring and thumb fingernails. And that was it! I took the pics a couple of days ago and there was no sunshine! Such a pitty because Zoya muse has gorgeous holo glitter that were flashing and gleaming, but that gorgeousness is not shown in my pics :(
As I always go a step too far, after a while I also painted some fish-scales on my middle fingernail, but I totally regret it and prefer the other version.
I think that would be my (first and) last under the see themed nail art for this year, but I'm
I hope you've liked the mani and don't hesitate to leave your feedback, it is always much appreciated!
Love,
Nati

ReplyDeleteLa gradient, la sabbia, lo stamping e il gioiello...mi piace veramente un sacco <3
E poi sto cantando con Sebastian da quando ho iniziato a leggere il tuo post. :D
Ciao Ilaria, grazie per i complimenti! haha, ci ho dovuto riflettere un po a quale Sebastian ti riferivi! certo la Sirenetta! communque non c'è stato stamping coinvolto nella manicure, le squame sono free hand!
DeleteThis is beautiful! That seashell decal is such a great accent, perfect with the gold and blue. I didn't think I was ready for fall, either, but then I started swatching the new Zoyas and now I've got my summers all stashed away again, lol.
ReplyDeleteHi Liesl, I'm glad you liked it! Well, I don't really have a choice since the weather is definitely taken the course for Fall... Oh those Zoya collections, I'm so looking forward for them here in Switzerland!
