The One With the Pretty Blue Color Block
9:00:00 AMNothing to Disclose
Good Morning polished world! How are you all doing on this cold, chilly Monday? We are in the middle of a lovely snowstorm. Yesterday we had a good inch or so of icy sleet, and then now we are supposed to get snow on top of it. I'm thanking the Lord for all wheel drive and heated seats! Makes for the longer commute to be manageable.
Since it's cold and chilly, I figured I would share my blue color block manicure I did when we had our first snowstorm in early November. I wanted to wait to share it because I felt that it had a winter/Christmas feel because of the color pallette. Honestly, I probably should have accented it with some snowflakes.
Let's take a look!
Colors Used:
- OPI - Set Apart by Tile Art
- China Glaze - Combat Blue-Ts
- Zoya - Dream
- Serendipity Polish - Holoday Lights
Set Apart by Tile Art is such a wonderfully gorgeous polish by OPI. I bought this one because I thought it was a dupe of My Boyfriend Scales Walls, but it wasn't 100% identical. What I found was something even more wonderful than my beloved My Boyfriend Scales Walls. This polish leans towards a light blue tint versus the grey tint of MBSW. Two coats, full coverage, and just wonderful off white that adds something unique to the manicure.
I think that if I used a regular white instead of Set Apart by Tile Art, I wouldn't have liked this manicure as much. It blended so well with the gorgeous blue of Combat Blue-Ts and Dream. Anyone else find that Combat Blue-Ts can be a tad difficult to work with because it dries so fast? It's well worth the pain that it is to apply. It looks GORGEOUS without a top coat because it has the most perfect matte finish.
What do you think of this color block manicure? Perfect for this time of year??
Might have a Christmas manicure to post next! Stay tuned.
Until next time, <3.
