10 Day Challenge: Day 8

Hi everyone! Welcome to day 8 of the challenge. Today's nails are supposed to be inspired by a movie.

Up is one of my most favorite movies of all time so I thought it would be perfect for this challenge. These nails were inspired by the scene where Mr. Fredricksen and Russel are just taking off and they are in the sky.

 On the ring finger I have a ton of balloons and then on the middle and pinky finger, I have a little more balloons then the sky and some clouds. For the sky/clouds, I started off with one coat of Bettina Vintage Jean then sponged on some white. For the balloons, using a big dotting tool, I would dot a couple colors, then take a smaller dotting tool and drag the polish a little bit down so the shape would be more "balloon-ey". I did that about 2-3 times using different colors. Topped it all off with one coat of Pro-FX.

Thanks so much for reading and be sure to let me know what you think! :)

Green Ocean Waves

Hi everyone!! Quick post today(: Started off with two coats of Jade Is The New Black and then thought it would look cute with this ocean/wave looking stamp... When I was in first grade everybody drew beach waves similar to this lol... anyway, let me know if you like it! :)

Overall, I like this but I don't love it... I think it looks a little flat. I seriously need to get some chrome/colored stamping polishes....

CRAZY DOTS!!

OPI Int'll Date Line

I didn't think that I was going to like this color... but once I got it on... it was actually quite flattering(:

Int'll Date Line is this pretty chocolate-y brown with maroon/burgundy, and maybe even some dark raspberry undertones. This polish is a black label so I am guessing thats why the formula was nice. I am not sure if they still sell this shade. Int'll Date Line dries fast and shiny. This is two thin coats.

Afterwards, I decided to do to the same thing I did to my other black label OPI... add dots!! Also, I wanted to mention that this polish is a tad bit more maroon/burgundy in real life... All pictures taken pre-top coat.

• Dots: fuchsia- OPI The One That Got Away, gold- OPI Bling Dynasty

Bet It All On OPI

A couple of weeks ago, my "boss" (I help out at her store) gave me some of her old nail polishes. One of them was Bet It All On OPI, an amazing red/orange.

Bet It All On OPI is a "black label" which I think means it's not 3-free. I am not sure though, if I am wrong, feel free to correct me(: I thought this would be a jelly polish just because it looked sheer on the brush, but it went on surprisingly opaque. The formula on this was perfection (maybe because it's 3-free??).

As you can tell, Bet It All On OPI is a fiery red/orange shade. It's perfect for summer. This polish dries really shiny so I didn't apply a top coat. This is 2 buttery smooth coats.

Does anybody happen to know if they still sell this?? Just curious...
