"Blue Skies" Feat: China Glaze "Kinetic Candy"

Pin It
You know what I love? The warm. You know where it's perfectly warm right now? Southern California. You know where i live? Yea, you already know because i tell you all the time and my picture's back drops are clear blue skies. lolalolalolalo. Here's today's post :)
For this mani...
China Glaze "Kinetic Candy"
Essie "Trophy Wife"
Color Club "Sexy Siren"
Pure Ice "Wild Thing"
Rimmel London "Misty Jade"
Behold, from the Electropop Lights collection by China Glaze released for Spring 2012, here is "Kinetic Candy". This shade is nearly a baby blue, but has a little quirk about it that makes it brighter then a pastel. Like the rest of the collection, this is another creme that applies perfectly smooth in two coats. If there is one collection i can get behind and recommend to people, it would be Electropop.
With a makeup sponge i sloppily sponged on diagonal lines across each nail with Essie "Trophy Wife". Though "Trophy Wife" is a stunning teal on it's own, lightly sponged its weird and awkward...And if you look to my ring finger on the left photo you will see i messed my nail up. I will next show you how glitter fixes that problem.
"Glitter fixes everything", and this is proof. You can't even tell my nail was nicked after two coats of Color Club "Sexy Siren". This glitter polish was enough to blur out my horrid sponging and still let the color contrast show through. "Sexy Siren" is made up on a blue micro glitter, and while it's not a good polish to use on it's own, you could do wonders with layering.
Here is where i should have stopped instead of adding the smaller dots of Rimmel "Misty Jade" seen in the first photo. With a medium and small dotting tool i did two half circles of Pure Ice "Wild Thing" to create a simple design.
