Bridesmaid nails

Tomorrow I am a bridesmaid in one of my best friends weddings. We traveled 9 hours by car and it's looking like tornado weather for her outdoor wedding! I hope it holds off. The thought is tornados makes me so anxious!

When I asked her what she thought about my nails she said "have at it!" Um, I have 100s of colors, that's not helpful! She actually offered me an appointment for a mani/pedi but I only took her up on the pedi part, I don't want ANYONE touching my nails!

What I ended up with is Sally Hansen Conplete Salon Manicure in Downtown Rubies with a ring finger accent of Color Club Risque topped with Revlon Stunning. This is to mimic the diamonds we are both sporting on this finger now! In retrospect I would've put down a coat of red cream polish before the Downtown Rubies because it took four coats to get it opaque. I also left my acetone and clean up brush at home so please excuse my messy application. This is as neat as it gets for me!

Max Factor Fantasy Fire

There's a rare and famed polish known as Clarins 230 that has earned the nickname Unicorn Pee because of the rainbow colors it flashes and the rareness of it. Recently Max Factor came out with a polish called Fantasy Fire that is VERY close to 230. However it's only available in the UK. I was lucky enough to swap with someone to get this gem. First of all, it's a tiny bottle. But it's gorgeous! I put it over Revlon Royal, an amazing blue jelly polish that I now love and wish I'd had for the plain mani. I had a hard time catching glimpses of the green flash in the Fantasy Fire layered over it and failed miserably at capturing it on my phone. Go see Cris at Let Them Have Polish for her swatches using the same combo.
