Butter London Fash Pack
Today I have Butter London Fash Pack. I describe this as a taupey brown with gold shimmer that shines through in the lighting. I am so happy I was able to capture the gold shimmer in these pics, I was worried it wouldn't show itself for you. Butter London is a 3 free lacquer and they are $15 for a full sized ( .4 fl oz.) bottle.
The Butter London formula is another one of my favorites to work with. It goes on so smooth, no clumps, and no streaks. I used 2 coats of Fash Pack for these pictures. I did not put on a topcoat and you can see that there is a nice shine to it on it's own. Dry time is is amazing and I have yet to find a Butter London that I did not like working with.
Butter London lacquers can be purchased on their website, in select salons, some department stores, and Ulta stores.

China Glaze Skittlette
Here's a fun little skittlette mani I did reccently. I wanted something fun and something to cheer me up since I had been going through some medical stuff recently. So I thought what better way to cheer me up than to do a fun, cheery mani!!
For this mani I used China Glaze Purple Panic (the hot pink/purple), Zoya Purity (the white), and Zoya Raven (the black). Plus I wanted an opportunity to use the gold studs that I recently bought off of Amazon.
So I put Purple Panic on my thumb and ring fingers, and Purity on my middle and pinkie fingers, and lastly Raven on my pointer/index finger. Then I added some Purple Panic and Raven dots in different sizes to the Purity on my middle finger.
Then I contemplated on where I was going to put my gold studs...finally I figured since they were a little bigger than I thought they would be I put it diagonally on my thumb (kinda like a diamond). Now to get it to stay I had to add a drop of nail glue to adhere the stud to my nail.
Next for something fun on my pinkie fingers I added some hot pink rhinestones and placed them around a Raven dot to form a flower.
Once everything was dried I added a topcoat of Out The Door to seal everything in and give it that shine (which the Purple Panic needed since it dries to a matte finish). Hope you liked my fun, cheery, pick-me-up mani cause I know I did!!
