Polish Addict Summer Berries

I'm in the mood...the mood for some summer, or at least summer polish! So, ‎Polish Addict Nail Color Summer Berries it is! It was soo cold and snowy in Ontario Canada that since spring hit, I've been mostly craving more pretty and pastel shades.

This is two coats of Summer Berries over one coat of Sally Hansen Berry Juicy with topcoat. Summer Berries is a lovely mix of berry coloured glitter in various shapes and sizes. The base is a pastel pink shade with a hint of purple to it. It's soo sweet it makes my teeth hurt! I just adored this polish.

After these pictures I thought why not add a cute little strawberry leaf top as an accent 'berry' finger. I added a base of white acrylic for the shape and to make the greens pop without showing through the glitters. Then I added Essie Shake Your $$$ Maker and Nicole by OPI Daffy Dill to create the leafy strawberry tops. 



I hope you enjoy my hint of summer! I know yesterday really felt like summer, and I spent the day in the park with my family!

Cheers all,

Two looks, One Accent Nail and Polish Addict Nail Color Rainbow Concrete

This is Rainbow Concrete from Polish Addict Nail Color. This polish is a medium tone grey with a lovely shimmer and a myriad of shapes, sizes and colours of glitter. I really liked this polish, and wanted to dig out my fan brush for the pinky finger accent. The pinky is a mix of duochromes in a kind of angled tweed look. This was easy to build up doing angled strokes in two colours and black added last. For the ring finger I used Greige Gardens by Revlon...my fave medium grey in two coats followed by the rhinestones. Eh voila!

Below is two coats of a Mari Moon I borrowed from a friend, and as with the other I showed before the name on the label has actually worn away. But whatever... Let's go with B-eautiful!

I really liked this simple accent nail, so taking the opportunity to try the second look was fun.

Polish Addict Nail Color, Jellyfish I with Nail Stamping

This one is a stamping gradient I whipped up for my son Carson's third birthday which is today! He's the weenut in our family and I can't wait to spend the weekend with him doing lots of immature fun boy things! I love him to the moon and back...miles and miles forevever ad infinitum!!!! You get it!

A quick word on my base colour, this is Jellyfish by Polish Addict Nail Color and I love it with my whole heart. I chose it because...well it's fab, but also cause it kinda reminds me of rainbow cake batter.

That said, mommy needed a manicure to wear through all the festivities. ‎Right away I reached for my Bundle Monster Holiday Set for its birthday plates. Unfortunately none of them were doing it for me so I chose this star gradient image from the Fourth of July plate.

The Blue is Sally Hansen Blue Me Away. Its still my go to blue for stamping. ‎I hope you like this quick stamping gradient. I really didn't know what I wanted to do, but this is the right amount of baby/big boy, festive and mommy! I love it! 

Cheers all,
