Lumene Silver Moon + Color Club Sex Symbol

I love my french manicure so much that I just couldn't take it off yet. So I'm going to show you some older photos again.

Here's one of my favorite silvers, Lumene's Silvery Moon:

In this picture I'm wearing two coats but one would be enough because this polish covers really well. This is certainly my favourite silver without any glitters.

In this picture I'm wearing Lumene's Silver Moon but I've added one coat of Color Club's Sex Symbol on top of it. Sex Symbol covers quite well so it can also be used alone, you just need to use two to three coats of it.

Of course there are so many great silver polishes and here's only two of my many favorites.

What are your favorite silvers?

China Glaze Rich and Famous

Sadly it wasn't a sunny day. Sadly it wasn't a bright day. Sadly it hardly felt a day at all.

So I took my camera to work where we have really bright spotlights, waited till no-one could see me and snap, snap, snap! And here's the result:

With bright lights and a little bit of editing you can almost see the right color of this bright, creamy pink polish. Here I'm wearing two coats of Rich and Famous, made some decorations with Konad and white Konad polish and added glitter using Anytime's Sparkling Fizz. How adorable and girly!

I just love this lacquering!

Rich and famous is a great polish: It covers quite well (I'd still recommend using two coats) and it's easy to apply. It's not too thick but nor too thin. Overall this will be one of my favourite bright pinks at the moment and I will definitely keep using it, especially with Anytime's Sparkling Fizz.

Lumene Hold My Hand & NYX Girls CN231

Something old, something new and something blue...

As my Finnish readers might know, I've made a new year's promise to use at least 10 nail polishes away from my polish collection before I'm allowed to buy new ones. And of course I want to get rid of those ten polishes as quickly as I can. So instead of using just my newest polishes (like I've been doing lately), I'm going to use my old ones also and combine them with the new ones.

So here's today's lacquer:

At first I just put Lumene's Quick & Chic nail polish called Hold My Hand (23) because I noticed that there weren't that much polish left in it's container (is that a right word?). I used three coats and topped it with Poshe. This is a nice, soft white color, not too bright. But this one just seemed a bit boring to be worn just by itself...

Then I decided that this one needs a little glitter:

I added one coat of NYX Girls' CN231 which is a great blue/turquoise glittery polish. Quite cute! This look isn't so sophisticated or classy but it's funny enough to be kept for a day. And the best thing is that my Lumene's nail polish has now enough polish for just approximately two lacquerings! Win-win situation for me!
