Basket Weave

Nothing to Disclose

Hello lovelies!

Sorry for my absence lately, my sweethearts. I've been working on some secret stuff for next week and then wore the base colour for today's mani for three days unadorned (gasp)!


For this weekend, my ABC Challenge prompt was I for iridescent. I had zero clue what to do with it.


So, I totally took it the easiest way possible. Hah. Whoops?


For this look, I started with two coats of Germanicure, which is my single favourite polish of all time. I topped than off with a coat of Iris, which is comprised of tiny iridescent flakes -- how I snuck in the theme for this week! I then painted on the basket weave first in Nightmaren, then in Stardust, and finally used Funny Bunny as an accent.


The below photo shows how Stardust is duochrome; it looks pink in the centre of my thumb and golden at the edges.


Polishes used:
OPI - Germanicure, Funny Bunny
Nubar - Stardust
Duri - Rejuvacote (base coat)
detail brush

I've been going through some rough times in the past week, my friends. (You can tell because my watermarking on these photos is kind of wonky-- I'm definitely spacey.) I'm sure I'll be back to my chatty, somewhat batty self soon. In the meantime, if anybody has any leads on teaching in Korea next year, send 'em my way! ;)

xo,

J.
