Weekend Manicure

 Hey Friends

Today I'm sharing my weekend manicure with you.

As usual it was a mash up :) 

I purchased two bottles of Fancy Rose 2.0 from Fancy Gloss because its such an interesting colour combo for a thermal, its green cold, blue warm and pink hot. As you can see I got bottles from two different batches of the polish, I love both, the lighter one has a peachy tone to the pink, this is kinda why I adore Indie polish makers and their thermals, as now I own technically three different versions of the same polish, Dried Roses has a different colour of flakie and base green colour than Fancy Rose 2.0. Fancy Gloss is also releasing a creme version of Fancy Rose and I will be picking up a bottle of that for sure.

I did two coats of each bottle, then I stamped with a whole bunch of Virago Varnish, Bug Bites (pink), Beet Ice (Cerise), Speedo (Red), Grunge (Purple).I really wish that Virago Varnish was still around, their polish was/is just brilliant for stamping.

Plates were Whats Up Nails B044 and B017.

For my middle fingers I did gradients of the two pinks and the red, then on my index and little fingers I used Grunge and Bug Bites on their own, my thumbs I did a smooch of the pinks and red.

The second shot down does have water splashed on my nails, I was soooo cold yesterday I couldnt get a warm shot without running hot water over my hands then dashing for my phone before my nails went back to being cold!

Weekend Mani

Hey Friends

Today I'm sharing my weekend mani with you, I started with a base of Fancy Gloss Dried Roses from Polish Pickup UK January 2022, this is such a cool thermal, its a green (cold) blue (warm) pink (hot) thermal that can also show a yellow hue jam packed with yellow to green shifting flakies.

I then stamping over it with Zoya Cooper and Virago Varnish Mango Madness using a EDK plate also from January 2022 Polish Pickup. I ment to do half green and half yellow stamping on my thumbs but clearly I missed the green as my nails were not as long as the stamping image.

If you really like the look of this polish, check out Fancy Gloss Fancy Roses 2.0 its the same base thermal but with a different mix of flakies. Comparison pic at the end of the swatches.

Cat pic at the end, after my workout this morning I came out of the shower to this scene, how cute but Obi was crashed out on my jeans lol.

Weekend Mani

Hey Friends

Today I'm sharing what I'm wearing for the weekend.

I started with two coats of the amazing Fancy Gloss Dried Roses a tri-thermal that is green (cold) to blue (warm) to pink (hot) which was from January 2022 Polish Pickup, I then stamped using Virago Varnish Oktoberfest, Not A Happy Camper and Zoya Palmer using plates B044 from Whats Up Nails and Floral 01 from Powder Perfect. I then applied Barry M Plumpy Topcoat and then Barry M Matte topcoat.

Fancy Gloss did have another version of this in their own shop called Fancy Roses, unfortunately the day it was launched on Rainbow Connection in the UK I had a massive migraine and when I logged onto the site the next day it was sold out. I am hoping that Jackie the owner of Fancy Gloss brings it back, as its a very unusual colour combo for a thermal.

I really like how in the cold state the flowers appear and in the hot state the ferns appear :)  Plus some pics of the stuning Ellie Belle taken by my hubs with his Nikon D90 camera.
