Challenge Day 6: Violet Nails

So I'm actually writing this post very late at night and scheduling it for this morning because I did it again. Painted my nails for yesterday but then did not post them. Oops!

I did another simpler mani yesterday, as I was still sick and bed-ridden (finally better & back to work today!) But I actually love the way it turned out! The color combination reminded me of some sort of leotard a competition gymnast or figure skater might wear, ha ha!

I chose to do some big giant polka dots! (Pictured with a totally unrelated polish) The base color is 2 coats of China Glaze Flying Dragon. It is a violet neon polish that dries very fast and matte, like most other neon polishes. It also has blue & silver micro glitters, which makes this polish so interesting and one of my favorites.

The polka dots were done with OPI Glitzerland and a large dotting tool. The dotting tool was still not large enough for these dots so i sort of swirled the tool around to make the dots larger. Unfortunately, they were not perfect when done this way, but I still like them!

Sorry for the lack of photos, I did take more but I'm having issues getting my camera to take clear photos without flash. It's a newer camera, so I'll just have to play with the settings some more!

Later today comes black & white nails! I have a fun idea for this which also includes polka dots. Hopefully it will turn out awesome!

F4 Polish Piper! Glittertastic Swatches

Hello everyone! Today I have another indie polish to show you! I actually found F4 Polish just by scrolling through polish related listings on Etsy one day and I immediately fell in love.
Their shop has an amazing abundance of glitter goodness. Couldn't resist!
I picked up an order from them consisting of 3 different polishes, and this is the first one I tried out!

Here is a bottle shot of F4 Polish Piper! Super cute label, neon pink! It made my camera nearly die (It doesn't like neon). Anyway, check out that macro glitter shot! Actually, it's more like a close up glitter shot, but it counts!

This is 1 coat of F4 Polish Piper over 2 coats of OPI Do You Lilac It?. This was the perfect underwear for Piper! It matched perfectly. Piper is a dense lavender, white & violet glitter polish with a clear base. Perfect for toppers, but dense enough to build up to wear on it's own. It features micro - large hex glitters and goes on very evenly. I didn't have to dab or place the glitters anywhere!

Here's a neat bottle shot with my mani all blurred out. Ha ha, I thought this was artsy! I loved this polish. Anything lavender is a weakness of mine, so I'm glad I picked up this beauty!

You can purchase F4 Polish on Etsy and keep up with them on Facebook!
Piper is not currently in stock, but the girls at F4 Polish restock very often, so keep your eyes out!
