Hi!
This will be a very quick post as I have a terrible migraine and will be off to bed in the next minutes :(
This isn't my NOTD as I'm still wearing Tickle my France-y that I looooove, but a picture of a mani I wore a few days ago. Actually I'll be showing you pics of two manis I wore recently, both for which I used OPI's Samoan sand, a beautiful nude polish.
Samoan sand's formula was very good, only not opaque enough for my taste. I applied 4 coats!!
Enjoy!
Photo 1: Samoan sand in natural lighting (mid PM) and with shiny top coat (Sèche Vite)
Photo 2: Samoan sand in artificial lighting (no flash) and with shiny top coat (Sèche Vite)
Photo 3: Samoan sand (+ OPI's Hopelessly in love on ring finger) in artificial lighting (no flash) and with matte topcoat (Essies' Matte about you)
I really like the mani shown in the last picture and call it my reverse mani: on my left hand I wore Samoan Sand on all but my ring finger, on which I applied Hopelessly in love, and on my right hand I did the contrary, i.e I wore Hopelessly in love on all fingers but my ring finger, which was sporting Samoan Sand. On day 1 I left this many shiny (no photos, sorry!) and decided to feshen it up on day 2 with a matte topcoat.
Both polishes look pretty much identical in the pictures, but believe me it was noticeable in real life.
