Fall Nails

This fall it's all about purple and grey for me.. not just with nails but clothes too.  This was my way of combining those 2 colors for my nails. Fall generally calls for deeper colored nails than in the summer which is all about bright colors. I'm still tan from the summer so the deep colors work for me until it fades. 

As a side note, I do my finger nails once a week, although I use Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat my nail polish still seems to chip.. it may be the base I'm using so I'll give my fast drying top coat the benefit of the doubt. However I think that the fast drying agents make the nail polish more susceptible to chipping.. just my observation.. I'm not so sure if that's scientifically proven or not!!

I used O-P-I's Funkey Dunkey and China Glaze's Recycle

Have fun with your nails and NEVER be afraid to try out different fun colors, I never strayed from the reds, and deep pinks and burgundy's but once I did I fell in love with doing my nails and wearing all the pretty colors and experimenting with different designs!! PS it is also really important to me to keep my nails in shape now that I do makeup at Macy's I find that I big part of my clientelling is looking nice, including my nails.

Nail Craze!

I'm going through a nail polish phase after quitting my job as a Model at Abercrombie & Fitch where I was strictly allowed to only paint my toe nails red, pink, french manicure, or plain and finger nails had to be clear. When O-P-I first came out with it's line for Sephora I bought quite a few nail polishes, I liked them but they were kinda all the same color range.. and I don't like to be really crazy with my nail color, but I do like variation.

I bought China Glaze's Recycle and fell in love! This is a matte grey color which seems to be pretty rare because I couldn't find a matte grey in any other brand. I keep getting compliments on my nails because it's so unique!

Even on my tan skin this color stands out and makes my hands look fresh. I needed about 2 coats to get to this intensity and topped it off with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat for a near perfect finish! I always like to make sure my nail color is somewhat neutral in the sense that it matches what I wear and the rest of my makeup, grey is such a unique neutral tone that matches everything!

This is my favorite nail color yet, and I already ordered a backup from Head2ToeBeauty(scroll down and you'll see it!) because I know I'll be grabbing this every time I want to do my nails! Again I like to purchase my nail polishes especially China Glaze from Head2ToeBeauty because it's cheaper. At $2.99 a bottle you can't beat it!

If you're a nail nut like me check this color out!
