Here is a collection of a few flakies. Most combinations are lovely ...

| Finger Paints - Twisted over dark base |
Black? I'm not sure what this base color was, but it sure does make the flakies stand out.
Revlon - Blue Lagoon w/ Nubar 2010
Revlon - Blue Lagoon is difficult to work with. It is dry, chalky and a bit gritty, but a very bright baby blue. I loved Nubar 2010 on top.
I sure do love blues and flakies!
Revlon - Modern Grace with Nubar 2010
OPI - Funny Bunny with Finger Paints - Asylum.
This combination looked great at most angles, like shown. Other angles made the sheer white (
my love) look pitted, but nowhere near what I am about to show you in the next set of photos.
China Glaze - Summer Rain
You either like these kinds of polishes or you don't. Personally, I don't mind that it is sheer or that it is slightly frosty. I do mind that it makes my skin color look like poo poo.
It gets worse though...
I decided to top this off with a flakie. Never again.
At some angles it looks nice.
Most angles it looks like this...
A true monstrosity. Just EWWWW. I must have set a world record for fastest nail polish removal.
Have you ever made a seriously fuggly nail polish combination?
