Holy Holo Nails Under The Hot Summer Sun.

The first holographic polish I had was China Glaze LOL, at the time we lived in sunny Long  Beach. And I just fell in love with the holo effect when I went outside in the sun. I couldn't stop staring at my nails, since then I have been a holo junkie. I don't have that many holo polishes, there are a few on my wish list. But I have 2 grades of SpectraFlair the holographic pigment you can add to polish or topcoat. So I can make normal polishes look holo with a couple of coats of my topcoats that has the SF mixed into it.
But today I wanted to use two of my holographic polishes from Color Club, not any of the new ones. I haven't been able to find those in any stores here in Salt Lake City. I guess I just have to cave in and buy them online. Anyways the two I used as my base today is Fashion Addict (light pink holo) & Worth The Risque (silver). I don't like the finished feel to these polishes, and just in case the holo effect will dull under topcoat, I applied 1 coat of my fine grade SF topcoat. So I still get the holo effect with some beautiful shine, YAY.

Then it was time to decide what plate and image to use over these stunning holos. You don't want to cover up holographic polishes too much so you loose the pretty rainbow effect. I decided to try out one of my new Dashica Dash plates so I picked an image from Dash 34. I wanted to stamp with black, but decided to try the black holographic from Color Club that I have Revvvolution (Yes, that is how it's spelled on the label). It worked pretty well as a stamping polish.

When I was done the pain of getting a good picture of the manicure started.  You know how it is with glitters and holographic polishes, it's a hassle to get the perfect picture. Thank goodness we live in a digital age.... Can you imagine how many rolls of film nail bloggers would have to throw away if we still used the old cameras???



The final look, under a hot sun in Salt Lake City.

Moving on to random non nail related, the other day while we were eating dinner my 2 1/2 was playing with some block on her chair while we were eating. When we were done my hubby told me to look at what she had spelled out with her blocks. Needless to say my eyes went big and I giggled like crazy. So he asked aren't you going to run and grab your phone and share this on your instagram and fb? Before he was done asking the question I had grabbed my phone and snapped  picture. 





Now back to nurse away this dam cold we have had in our home the past 2 weeks, all of the others had it and now I guess it was my turn...... I hate summer colds, they always hit me really bad when I get them.
Hope my dear followers get to enjoy summer.

Until next time, HAPPY STAMPING.
