Ocean Floor

OMG! Can I tell you how much I love this color combo?! I had done a similar combo before, but not on my nails. Go figure! Ok, so I love to paint things in general and I had the idea to make refrigerator magnets out of the clear decorator river rock looking things. I forget what color I used for the sea green/turquoise color, but I think it was OPI "Stranger Tides", so a little more green and a little more of a murky color. Then I used OPI "Last Friday Night" which was the glitter topper from the Katy Perry collection. This is what resulted from there.

It reminds me of looking through the water to the ocean floor. Clean, calming, refreshing like being at the beach on a super calm day.

I got my monthly shipment of Square Hue polish yesterday and the June batch is inspired by SoBe drinks. There was a grey, "Lincoln Road", an orange/bright peach, "Collins Avenue", and the lovely sea green, "Ocean Drive". See here:

I had been using neon and brights lately, so I wanted to steer away from the orange for now. Also, the grey seemed a bit blah for me today, but for another day, it will be awesome. But I really liked the sea green. So I decided to recreate the magnet look with this more bright color. Again, the glitter topper was OPI "Last Friday Night" from the Katy Perry collection. Hope you like it as much as I do! Makes me want a beach and some fruity umbrella drink :)

Square Hue Yellow Submarine

I am torn with this polish. This is part of the April shipment of Square Hue and the polish is called "Yellow Submarine". This yellow actually works with my skin tone! However, it took 4 coats to even out and not look all streaky. I put some stickers on it to jazz it up, but that was a bad idea. They smooshed into the polish and made visible ridges that top coat could not even out. I think it looks ok, kind of like a quilting pattern or something. Next time I may use a white base under the polish. Have a great Thursday!

Square Hue Polish

I am going to try to do only St. Patrick's day manis until St. Patrick's day. We'll see how my plan works :) This is Square Hue polish. It's a polish of the month club that I was turned onto by The Polishaholic. Every month you get 3 polishes that, thusfar, has been month/holiday themed. In January, the colors were two blue hues and a shimmer white. Then February was pinks and reds. Now, for March, a hunter green, a copper, and a gold. This green is called "Patty's Pint." The polish is made in the USA, if that matters to anyone, and has pretty good wear. I used my MJ plate and Konad Special polish in gold for the design. This is 2 coats...for the most part. I had a few nails where I painted a little thin, so those have 3. Hope you all have a great day!
