Faded Neon Rosebud

Monday, January 19, 2015 1/19/2015 10:00:00 AM
I hope everyone is enjoying their long weekends. Sadly for me I have to be at work on Monday. No holiday for me. :-( 

Today I'm showing you a fun striped look with two Indie polishes. My base is Floss Gloss Faded. This is a greyed out denim blue. It's a really unique color and I'm a huge fan. This is two easy coats. 




I then used straight Nail Vinyls to add stripes of ILNP Neon Rosebud. These multi-chrome flakie polishes are everywhere lately but they are SO GORGEOUS! Neon Rosebud goes from blue to green/yellow and magenta. It's so stunning and I love the way it accents Faded. 




As a final touch, I matted the whole look with my Revlon Matte topcoat. I much prefer it matted vs. shiny. 




What do you think? Flakies or no flakies? Matte or shiny?

Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

      I think the flakies lend themselves to nail art, which is so great.

    You made an anazing nailart in such an easy way. The polishes blend so nicely. Love both matte and glossy

    This is gorgeous! I hope we get some flakies out here. I have the Revlon moon candy ones, but they are not nearly as cool as these!

      The sheer ones like Moon Candy are so different from these chrome ones. I can't get enough of the chromes.

    I love that Floss Gloss color! And I preferred it matte, though both were lovely

    Wow, this was pretty to start with, but the matte just amped it up a notch. Awesome. :)
