Hey everyone.
I was going through my files looking for something when I came across this photo that I took a couple of months ago (as you can see, my nails were in the middle of a regrowth stage) and I thought that this would be a good time to discuss mixing nail polish finishes.
In this photo I used a black base, topped it with a matte top coat and then used a clear top coat to create the leopard design. It's subtle and I think that's what I like so much about this type of design. I know that there's been a big matte polish craze lately and I think this is one way that I'm able to get on board with it.
I've been meaning to try different combinations of this type of design to see what I can come up with (ie: different colour bases, different designs, etc).
So what does everyone else think about the mixing of polish finishes? Are you a fan? Do you hate the matte craze and just want it to end?
Products:
• Orly "Orlon Basecoat"
• China Glaze "Liquid Leather"
• China Glaze "Matte Magic"
• Orly "Sealon Topcoat"
I think mixing polishes is a great idea. I love what you did. I haven't tried the matte finish polishes yet. I tend to stick to the shiny ones more. I amy have to give this a shot.

ReplyDeleteWell I'm not a huge fan of crazy nail art ( I like to watch on others but on me it just doesn't work) but this is so soft and delicate that it looks amazing
