2fer Post! ~ CNT 52 week PnM Fishbraid/Non Giltter Topper plus HPB Presents New to Me!

Hello Dahlings!

 

Wow! That title is a mouthful for sure.

Sorry, I don't usually double up themes in one post,
however, as I was looking over my challenge notes
I noticed that da Hobby Polish Blogger's monthly challenge
of showing a new to me brand, technique &/or trend
was due this weekend & I hadn't done da mani I had planned for it.
Blerg.

 

Da good news is that I had gotten my Tarts mani
of a fishbraid &/or a non-glitter topper done
& I had used a new to me brand.
It's an accidental success, but I'll take it!

 

 This is my fishbraid with non-glitter topper mani

using Crazy Sister Designs thermal polishes.

Da topper is from Down The Bayou Lacquer,

which seems to be on hiatus at da mo.

 

 Da line up ~ CSP Gloomy Day, Peacock Princess & Mermaid Mist

plus DTBL Glow Holo Topper Blue

 

 This pic shows da cold colors.

GD & PP are both matte crèmes & MM is a jelly.

I only needed one coat of da mattes for each pass,
but da jelly needed 2.

All were on da thinner side, but very workable & dried quickly.

 

 Da warm colors are so very pretty together!

 

 So da GHTB was supposed to be a gitd holo topper.

To get this pic I had to heat my hand up so da lighter colors showed

& then it only glowed over Mermaid Mist, da lightest color.

It glowed better IRL, but not by much.

Gitd can loose their glow over time

& this one had also thickened up quite a bit as well.

I added both thinner & clear polish
to get it back to a workable consistency.

At least I had da rainbows & thermal color shifts to enjoy!

 

Lookee...RAINBOWS!!!

Angie packed my order in this
MOST EXCELLENT holographic mylar bag!!!

Her location is maybe 50 miles from my house,

so it's a local company for me. Please go show her some love!

 

>^. .^<

 

Meowmy won't let me play with her claw pretties.

Harumph, I'se gonna pout!

 

Thanks for stopping by

& please go show both da Tarts & da HPBs some love today!
