The One With the Skittle Swatches
9:00:00 AM
Good morning polished world! How are you all doing today?? It's Saturday, so I'm super thrilled to be sleeping in and spending my day doing absolutely nothing. Well that's a lie, I have a lot of errands to run and a Pinterest project I want to complete. I also want to sleep until about 1pm, but I don't see that happening.
So as we all know, I'm taking a tad of a break from the intricate nail art after all the Halloween manicures. I did do some nail art last night, but unfortunately I'm having an awful time photographing them. I did get some photographs, but they're going to need some editing for you to be able to see the design. Sigh. I hate when that happens. Maybe I'll just take some cell phone shots outside and call it a day.
Anyways, today's manicure is a simple swatch skittle which I actually did last month. I attempted to do a Halloween manicure but couldn't get the nail art to work right, so I just made it a swatch mani. I ended up wearing it for a few days because I really liked the color combination and how it turned out.
Let's take a look!
Colors Used:
- Zoya - Rooney
- Zoya - Dahlia
- FingerPaints - Sterling Sculpture
- ORLY - Liquid Vinyl
Isn't it pretty? You guys might be seeing more skittles from me in the future. I feel like my nails are still fancy even without nail art when I do these manicures. Plain swatches of one color just bore me and I remove them right away. When it's a bunch of swatches though, I love it.
Rooney is a gorgeous pink polish. It sits in the back of my Melmer and never gets used. Two coats of this beauty. If you like pinks, then I suggest you purchase it. I'm happy I purchased Dahlia awhile ago during a Zoya promo. This polish is absolutely gorgeous and one of my favorite Pixie Dusts. Two coats and full coverage. I thought it was going to need three the first time I swatched it when I bought it, but it builds up wonderfully in two coats.
You already all know how much I love FingerPaints Sterling Sculpture and ORLY Liquid Vinyl. My favorite go to polishes.
What do you think? Like the skittles? Think I could get away with doing more??
Until next time, <3.
