Deborah Lippmann Glitter in the Air over Rescue Beauty Lounge Bikini Bottom

Now normally sheer polishes don't do it for me, but when I saw these two layered by grayeyez on MUA, I needed both of these asap.

This is 3 coats of Bikini Bottom.






Aside from how sheer Bikini Bottom is, the formula was pretty easy to work with.

This is Bikini Bottom with 2 coats of Glitter in the air.

OPI Moon Over Mumbai

I bought this polish two or three years ago.  When I saw it, I just knew it would be the perfect pale, dove grey creme (there is some hidden shimmer) I had been looking for.  If only I had checked some blogs first lol.  I was so mad at this color.  I tried wearing it once and just couldn't bear the VNL (visible nail line) and took it off a few hours later and tossed it to the side.

So here I am again.  Today I needed something more tame and "work appropriate" so I dusted Moon Over Mumbai off and tried again.  I can't say that I love it, but it's perfect for those times you should be wearing a more subtle polish.

This is two coats over a ridge filler.

Essie Baby's Breath

I wasn't going to share this manicure, but my friend Dana has informed me that I'm not updating enough. :insert eye roll here:  So today I have on Essie's Baby's Breath.  Now I know this is meant to be sheer, but I hate visible nail line and I couldn't help but try my best to make it opaque.  I managed . . . after 5 coats.
