This is three coats of KBShimmer - It's Razz-ical, a cerise jelly filled with pink and holographic glitter. I did need three coats for full opacity, my nail line was slightly visible with just two. But holy crap it's gorgeous!
I want to lick my nails, that's how yummy it looks! It dries quickly, matte and slightly rough, though not textured, so I'd suggest using a layer or two og top coat, which makes it shiny and the glitters really come to life.
On my ring and thumb I tried to do a braided accent nail, I followed Lucy's tutorial for a fishtail braid. It went ok, My hands are just so shaky I had trouble making the lines even :-/
For the fishtail braid I started with one coat of OPI - Haven't The Froggiest from the new San Francisco collection, which deserves a post of it's own. A silvery gorgeous one coater with perfect formula! I then alternated using It's Razz-ical, OPI - Pink Friday and Haven't The Froggiest.
It's Razz-ical is from KBShimmer's summer collection, but dark pink like this works for autumn too, so I'd say it's year round gorgeousness ;)
The last photos are in direct flash, to show the gorgeous holo sparkle.
These are gorgeous Lisa! I love how sparkly these glitters are <3 I don't blame you for wanting to lick your nails haha!
ReplyDeleteI love this colour!!! I should definitely get my hands on some KBShimmer polishes. And the fishtail looks amazingggg!
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing!! Love your blog ♥♥
ReplyDeleteI love this! Then again I love just about every design you come up with. I do have to ask, does the braid take forever to do? I'm guessing you have to let each "strand" dry before you paint the next one?
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yu do have to wait for each color to dry at least a little so it won't smudge. But for me all colors except Pink Friday were dry when I had done all nails, and while waiting for Pink Friday to dry I cleaned up around the other nails, top coated and stuff, so it didn't really take too long :)
DeleteGorgeous shade from KB Shimmer! Love the fishtail nail you did here too :)
ReplyDeleteOh, How gorgeous lisa! Perfect! I need to try this myself, but I don't own any polish as spectacular its Razz-ical
