Pahlish Tone on Tone

I had planned on sharing Digit-al Dozen posts this week and actually did a few blog posts last weekend so I'd be ready for the challenge this week. But the group has put it off for a bit but I didn't have any other posts ready to share as I had worked on DD posts.  So sorry for not sharing in a few days but I thought I'd take time to do a quick post now!  

It took me a bit to find a mani that wasn't blue or  with snowflakes...or blue with snowflakes.... as that seems to be what's been going on my nails lately.  Anyway, here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of Pahlish Test Batch:  Fighting Fish, no top coat.

Topped with a coat of KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

Stamped with an image from Apipila Super Placa H using MdU 78.

Topped with KBShimmer Clearly on Top to finish.

Now stay tuned for blue or snow or blue and snow nails; I'm sure they'll be shared soon!

Thanks for looking!

Experimenting With Layering Again!

I'm still experimenting with layering polishes; one of my favourite things to do is to top a base polish with an interesting topper or a sheerer polish anyway and see how it turns out.  And to finish it with some stamping, of course!  I did these back in March and while the colour combination is a little interesting, I think it works!  Here's what I came up with!

Started with a base of two coats of Misa Dirty Sexy Money, no top coat.  This was one of those sought after polishes back in the day and I'm glad I was able to snag it!  Formula is a little thin but personally, as long as it builds to opaque in two coats, I prefer thin as I find it easier to clean up!

Can we talk about that shine?  No top coat and so bright you need sunglasses!

Topped with a coat of Glam Polish Part of Your World.

Little darker lighting but you can see the beauty of the polish a little bit better.  Lots of interest here and it is a great polish for a topper but dense enough to layer to opaque.

Shown again in different lighting to see polish topper a little bit better.

Stamped with image from Apipila Super Placa H using Painted Polish Autumn Twilight 2.0.

Lots of interest there!

Loving this shift in the Glam Polish, just adds so much more interest to the nails!

I love experimenting with layering; I only wish I had more time to do more of it!  I know it isn't time consuming to do the actual nails; it is the time to search through my stash to come up with polishes (and plates!) to use!

Hope you're having a great weekend; thanks for looking!
