Del Sol Foxy Fun!

Hello Dahlings!
 
Our North Wet summer has been warmer than usual a few times so far, but today isn't one of them & da sun is playing peek-a-boo. As I type this it's comfy 60 degrees & overcast. However, we have had some sun & 2 weeks ago it was hitting 80+. My BFF's & I were going to get together & I wanted something fun on my nails...
 
 Da line up: Del Sol Foxy, Zoya Raven & Chloe, Orly Glitz
 
I knew this polish would be a bit on da sheer side from when I did a polishsicle for it, so I started with 2 coats of my base coat & then 3 coats of Foxy. Indoors or in shade, Foxy is a nice medium pink with a pearly shimmer. (My standard base coat is a conglomerate of several base coats & is currently a nearly opaque nude on its own. (If you'd like to know more about my mix-it-myself base coat & cuticle oil or polishsicles, please say something in da comments?)

 After I did da base color, I added a skinny French tip using Raven. Over all that that I did a coat of Chloe, which is a fire flakey in a sheer pink base. Next came a stripe of Glitz made with my trusty Essence skinny striper. I topped it off with one coat of Seche Vite as usual. I may putz with my base coat, but SV is my all time fav top coat
& I rarely use anything else. Even when I apply matte tc, I use SV 1st to cure the polish under the matte tc.
 
Ta Da! Foxy in full sun. It's a lil hard to tell in these pics, but Foxy does turn a nice red violet in full sun & da flakies made for some sparkly fun.
 
Thanks for stopping by!
