Flushed with stripes and dots - easy nail art

The base color is Cult Flushed, and I was only swatching it (see swatches HERE) – but oh, my acrylic paints wanted to play, so here is the result after I top coated with Seche Vite!

Bootie Babe Cushy Tushy and Baboon Moon swatches

This is two random Bootie Babe polishes I bought from Edgy Polish....
Bootie Babe Baboon Moon is described as an electric blue glitter, and that's true with top coat.
But in my mind it qualifies as a blue textured/sand polish with lovely glitters.
This is two coats with a super quick dry time and the finish is just like a sand polish, pleasantly coarse and semi matte - not at all like a glitter that needs a top coat. So that's how I want to show it ;)
 - and this is how it looks if you wear it with top coat:

Next we have Bootie Babe Cushy Tushy a plum cream polish shown in 2 coats without a top coat...
- so do you like them, and what's your favorite...?

You find more Bootie Babe polishes in Katarinas shop right HERE...

Rouge Noir with flowers and gold - nail art

The base color is Chanel Rouge Noir 18 and I dabbed the tips with Illamasqua Spartan before I painted my flowers with acrylic craft paint. The top coat is Seche Vite.

Ulta3 Orchid swatches

Ulta3 Orchid is a GORGEOUS purple with lots of beautiful shimmer that makes it look like a purple fire is trapped inside.
It is a one coater, easy to apply, but this is 2 coats without a top coat – enjoy!
PS: Ulta3 is an Australian drugstore brand...

Today I have 3 random Nabi 3D Rainbow Effect Hologram polishes to show you...

First we have the beautiful medium blue 10 Navy Blue in 2 coats, no top coat...

Next we have 09  Green, a summery light apple green with very subtle holo effect. this is 3 coats, no top coat...

And last, but not least: 15 Dark Purple, a lovely medium purple shown in 2 coats without a top coat.

What do you think of these holo's?

Chanel Strong SoHo Story collection fall 2010 swatches

Chanel Strong – is from the SoHo Story coll. fall 2010: Steel and Strong.
Strong is a gorgeous super dark blackened purple with a beautiful shimmer and a smoky hue like you find in Vertigo 563 – I find it a bit too complex to describe better, but I love it!
It is very opaque in one coat, but this is 2 coats without a top coat, and the shine is amazing.
Isn't it gorgeous?
