Archives: Playing with Shatter

I got a bunch of OPI shatters, including their blue collection and played around with them 😀

Base color: Orly Blue Collar
OPI Silver Shatter
I love this effect– I really love the silver shatter over a blue base, it just looks wonderful like that.

Pure Ice Crimson, with OPI Navy Shatter over it. It just looks black here, but I adore this effect. It looks just like cooling lava!

Pure Ice Crimson, with OPI Blue Shatter over it. Spiderman! XD

It was really interesting to look at. It looked almost multichromatic from afar due to insufficient contrast, and people thought they were like a chameleon. XD

Blue Over a Shatter

Base: Misa Blue Over a Boy (a bright aqua creme)
Top: OPI Black Shatter

Also tried something new and after applying the shatter, I freehanded swiped Blue Over a Boy on the tips. Whatcha think? I think it makes the shatter look really squared off. 🙂

On Wednesdays We Wear Pink

Some lacquer girls got together and created this “club” and I’ve jumped on the bandwagon 😉 If you watched Mean Girls you’ll know what’s up with this. Every Wednesday will feature a theme of pink polish, and I have one for this week.

Essie Bachelorette Bash. It’s hard to see in this picture, but it was topped with Essie Kisses & Bises, a rainbow duochromatic sheer topper. 

It’s been a while since I did the shatter look, so here it is! After a hiatus my Shatter bottle formula went a bit wonky and ruined an entire hand, which I had to redo D:

Another spam

Had a frustrating week. But most of it is done. Behind in my blogging, sorry about that! I have 29 followers and I feel so excited that people outside my family and friends are reading my blog!

Here, have spam. (not the canned kind).

Zoya Crystal, a dupe to the OPI Reflecting Pool.

THIS IS GORG. It’s got gold flecks in it, and even in dark it will reflect what little light there is and make me look like I have gold nails. Love it.

China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint, a gorgeous pastel light minty green. 

Stamping color: Sally Hansen Chrome in Cinnamon Diamond

Konad Plate

Aside from the slight smearing by topcoats, this was a great mani– it looked like easter eggs on my nails!

Butter London British Racing Green, with Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure layered over.

BRG is a gorgeous dark green with a visible shimmer in the bottle but when I applied it, it looked like hunter green and there was no shimmer (at least none that I could capture on the camera. D:)

Color Club Love ’em Leave ’em

Taupe “holographic” (it’s really very very scattered. I couldn’t get a linear going)

I present to you my favorite look of all this spam. 

Base color: Color Club Ms. Socialite (gorgeous purple. I totes love it.)

Tip and accent color: OPI Show it & Glow it (from their burlesque collection, a fuchsia glitter)

Striping black: Color Club Where’s the Soiree?

Tips were freehanded

 Zoya Mitzi for base (a neon green matte)

China Glaze Crackle in Fault Line

China Glaze from their Tronica collection

Stamped with a BP fauxnad, with CG Snow.

Go Rangers!

My alma mater (lol, high school) is here at my university because we host an academic competition, so they’re here to participate. Currently I think they are winning 7 to 2, and will play in the national section tomorrow. Our colors are royal blue and white, so I painted Sally Hansen Insta-Dri In Co-bolt Blue, which is gorgeous! Over it is China Glaze White Lightning crackle.
