NOTW: Sea of Stars

Hello, darlings. GREAT NEWS!

I'm employed!... again!

I need the job for the Christmas shopping and whatnot so this'd be pretty good :)

IN OTHER NEWS

I am about to show you a manicure I'm seriously in love with. I'm a little sad that the pictures don't do this justice, and if I could just give you all a high five and show you my nails personally, I would, alas, such are the limitations of our screens.

The best part about it?

IT WAS ALL TOO SIMPLE.

So let's get on to it because I need to get to work asap after this XD

I feel like I have the galaxy on my nails. Excuse the pre-clean-up look. But admit it, it looks absolutely gorgeous.

A closer look.

And the cool thing about it is, if you tilt it, somehow, it looks like you're going deeper into space even though you know there's glitter there.

This is probably the shot that shows why it's so cool best. The reason I named this Sea of Stars was because it was a mix of elements of the ocean, water, fish scales; but at the same time, it's pretty much like space, the galaxy, filled with stars and depth and wonder. Still, this didn't do it justice :p But here's my base color anyway, Chic Blue Velvet. I don't know if I just had a bad bottle or what but usually, their polishes run on the thin and runnier side. This? This was a pain to work with. T'was a little thick and globby at random moments which just bothered me because I just want everything nice and even!

The genius behind it all.

This, this is addictive. My friend Mai got this as well after I got it and she's fine with one coat. I used two initially which produced glowing results and seemed more space-like as the "stars" were more dispersed but I couldn't help it! I did two more coats and bam. Rock n roll space sea lost control. Sorry I didn't take a before and after shot, the sun wasn't out at the time =\

Anyway, there you have it. I'm grabbing breakfast then I'm getting to work!

How are you all doing?

Are you into this glittery mess? :p

I think it's a great way to solve your dilemma when you want something dark and yet bright at the same time!

So yay

'Til then,

Love muchness,

Ciao!
