Sea Cap

I figured you're all tired of seeing swatches of the latest China Glaze release, Anchors Away, so I just ventured on into layering land with a couple of the ones I acquired recently. Here is White Cap over Sea Spray.




This is one coat of White Cap over three coats of Sea Spray. I'm still having a rather hard time applying pastel like polishes, but with that third coat it mostly looks good. And yes, I'm still trying to mess with myself by wearing colors that aren't typically me. This manicure I actually enjoyed quite a bit, and spent lots of time studying closely while in class. I also got compliments from my sweet Cuban classmate on it (and while she was at it, she also threw in a compliment on the manicure she remembered me wearing the day before, which was Orly's Galaxy Girl). I have to admit I like getting compliments on my nails...

Swedish word of the day:
havsbris -noun ocean breeze
Honestly, not really my thing - I'm a lake kind of gal.

    Good post. We can't be always buying new polish. Let's see how we can make the most of what we have by layering!

    Love it! I may actually have to get those. I haven't been convinced to get anything before, but after seeing that...I've changed my mind!
