Glistening Gold

lolol bad title. Shrug. here be the pretty.

Orly Pure Gold swatch. A beautiful matte, and the formula is to die for in mattes, IMO. It dries very quickly but not TOO quickly– like to the point where you can’t correct or else you’ll pull up the first layer.

Nummy. Baby blue chrome, what’s to hate?

I got a big ass Avon haul in today, and among these was the Avon Mirror Shine collection which I had heard was wonderful for stamping (I have been on a chrome polish collecting prowl lately I admit) so I got all their colors. Not to mention, they are having a big sale on their polish online as well.

Base color: Orly Pure Gold
Stamping Color: Avon Mirror Shine in Glisten

Topaz Butterflies

 Started with Wet n Wild Blue Moon, and the color isn’t accurate in this photo… Not sure why.

Stamped over with Sally Hansen Chrome in Topaz, the WnW color is more accurate in here, definitely.

I’ve been thinking about my Mom a lot lately (Not like I don’t, but you know.) and she, my grandmother, and I always believed that butterflies symbolized messages from the deceased. I’ve missed Mom a lot this week, and so I decided to choose the butterfly image because it’s too cold for them to visit me here in DC 🙂

Chainmail

 I wanted to match my t-shirt today, which is a World of Warcraft t-shirt, and it has a tank on the front of it. He’s covered in plate and chainmail so I chose colors that matched the shirt. 🙂  Check out the subtle shimmer of China Glaze Wagon Trail!

The gold nails/gold stamps is China Glaze 2030, and the dark nails/stamping is China Glaze Wagon Trail (From their Rodeo collection). Wagon Trail is a very intricate dark brown/green, and is actually quite beautiful.
