Swatch: Catrice Genius In The Bottle

Hi!

I hopped on the bandwagon.

I think that this is most wanted color of the last few months. 

Not specifically the Catrice version but the color in general.

Every nail polish junkie will reconise this color.

It is a dupe for Chanel Peridot.

Catrice Genius In The Bottle is a duochrome polish.

It looks like an olive green but from a different angle it looks brown and if the light hits your nail from another angle it looks gold.

Chanel Peridot is more green while Genius In The Bottle is more yellow.

But it still is a dupe.

If Catrice isn't sold near you but you do want this shade you might want to try to find:

-Ciaté Oil Slick.

-Jessica Iridescent Eye.

-OPI Just Spotted The Lizard.

-Topshop Hidden Treasure.

-Deborah Lippmann Swagga Like Us.

These are all dupes or really similar polishes to Chanel Peridot.

I used 3 coats.

On my thumb and ring finger I used a nail sticker I bought these at Action in a set of 3 sheets.

I hope you liked it.

Stamping Saturday: Jessie J Leopard

Hi!
Jessie J is an artist that everyone knows by now.

Her make-up is always perfect.

But the thing that I always look at are her nails.

I found this picture on google.

And I love every single on of them, especially the one on the left bottom.

I am going to post tutorials on all four of them. 

I don't know when Jessie J wore these manicures or who made these designs.

But I asume that when I search "Jessie J Nails" that these nails are manicures the Jessie J has worn.

Back to the tutorial.

This one is for top left manicure.

What I used:

Colors: Essence Fame Fatal, H&M Blue My Mind, Miss Sporty 301, Konad Black.

Other Products: M57, Stamping Products, Tape.

Topcoat: Seche Vite.

1.Apply your base and tape off the nail so the bottom half is exposed.

You don't have to use tape but it won't give you a crisp line.

I don't use a basecoat on tips but if you are doing this on your natural nail you need to apply one.

2.Peel off the tape and place it a little higher.

3.Polish the middle section yellow.

Don't cover up the blue polish!

4.Peel the tape off and paint the last part of the nail red.

5.Stamp the leopard image on to the nail.

6.Apply your topcoat.

I hope you liked it.

Crackle It Up: Essie Dive Bar & La Femme Turquoise

Hi!
Here is a swatch post.

Essie Dive Bar is a blue with a black base.

It has some blue shimmer and a purple sheen in the bottle.

But on the nail you don't really see that.

Over that I applied La Femme Turquoise.

It is a basic creamy turquoise crackle.

I used 1 coat.

I used Seche Vite as my topcoat.

I hope you liked it.
