Franken Blogger Series Part 1: Purple Castle

Hello beautiful ladies! A couple weeks ago, I decided to try my first franken and couldn't decide on what color or polishes to use. Then I thought why not choose to do them by someone who inspires me and has helped me a lot here on blogger.
I chose to do a franken inspired by Lydia from Sekhmet's Purple Castle. We both decided Purple Castle would be a great name for the polish!
Its a light purple with pink undertones, large, medium, and small silver/holo hex glitters, purple glitters, blue glitters, silver shimmers, orange and green flakies, and blue and purple hex glitter! Enjoy!

*There will be 2 more frankens inspired by Katee from A Girl and Her Polish and Jenni from Gold Speck Nails

Flakie Mani

Hello everyone! Hope you all are having a good day! So the other day I was going through my nail polish collection and wanted to do a flake mani, I layered a blue/green flakie over a orange/green flakie and to me it looks like Finger Paints in Twister or Asylum ! I love it, enjoy!

Pink Wednesday!

Hey everyone! I did this mani awhile back and I'm so behind on blogging! Anyway, for today I wanted to layer 2 pink polishes that I don't really use. Mostly because they are so sheer but together they make a beautiful couple and even thoughtI used a top coat, it looks a bit matte! The first polish is a sheer baby doll pink and the second one is a nude pink with purple micro shimmers! I love it, enjoy! :) To me this color reminds of a strawberry banana smoothie!
