Clarins 230

I have had a string of bad luck lately, first my macbook screen decided to quit working and then I ripped my nail so badly that I had to nubbinize my nails even shorter than I am used to.  Oh well, I decided to wear the crowning glory of my nail polish collection to make me feel better.  I present to you  Clarins 230, also known as Unicorn Pee in the nail polish world.  It is best used as a layering polish, so I decided to layer it over three coats of OPI Do You Think I'm Tex-y.  I mostly see it layered over a purple base, but I decided to try something a little different.   How do you like this combo?

You can see the shrinkage that Seche Vite caused on the tips of my nails.  Even so, I ended up wearing this mani for five days.   

I also decided to finally order from Rescue Beauty Lounge.  I ended up getting Scrangie, Pizzicato, and Moxie.  I will share the gorgeous Moxie today.  It is a frosty white that has a candlelit yellow glow.  It is pretty unique and I received a few compliments while wearing it.

Essie Reggae + Zebra Stamping

Reggae is a very old Essie that I received in a swap about a year ago.  It is discontinued and so old that I can't find any information about when it was originally released.  It's even in an old style bottle, without Essie embossed in the glass. It is a frosty lime green, very unique.  Hope you enjoy!


Here is Reggae with black zebra stamping on top.  Sorry for the imperfections, I am a beginner at stamping.  Hopefully with practice I can get better.  Any recommendation for stamping plates to try out?
