I feel slightly old today

Happy Birthday to me!  I am very excited mainly because this weekend I will be shoving my face full of deliciousness.  My sister makes some killer cinnamon buns and I am crossing my fingers she'll read this in time, hint hint ;)

The MUA nail boards have inspired my b-day mani!



Hello sparkly goodness!

I love it so much. :D

I have to give thanks to the hubby for actually picking the final manicure.  Good job!

This is actually a layered manicure so here is what I used ... 








Base: Nail Life Nail Revitalizer
(formaldehyde free)

This is a protein based treatment with moisturizers, you can learn more in this post.

After the base, I applied one coat of the slightly streaky mess that is China Glaze - Bahamian Escape.



Somehow I managed less streaks with my non-dominate hand ...


Then I applied one coat of KleanColor Blue Holo 135.


I applied a second coat of KleanColor Blue Holo and top coat.

This picture shows two coats of KleanColor Blue Holo on top of China Glaze - Bahamian Escape with topcoat.

The bottle shots are made even more lovely with my gargantuan hands! 


Final Manicure:
Base: Nail Life Nail Revitalizer
Color: 1 coat China Glaze - Bahamian Escape
Color: 2 coats of KleanColor Blue Holo
Top: 1 coat Sally Hansen Clear
Top: 1 coat Poshe


Oh hello sun!


I love the KleanColor Holo's because they give me the sparkle of glitter without the roughness.


Have you tried the stinky-ness of Kleancolor?

  1. Happy Birthday!! Your nails look fab!

    I am actually wearing right now 2 coats of Kleancolor Blue Holo myself, I had to do my nails super quickly the other day before going out cause my nails were naked and I just threw on 2 coats of that plus SV top coat and as simple as it is, I get so many compliments on the glitzyness of it.

    But yea Kleancolor polishes really do REEK!!! lol
