Blueberry swirl
Still playing with the Color Club polishes! These are, I believe, Nomadic in Nude, and Shabby Drab (lilac, though it does look blue here.)
I was inspired by this swirled mani, and wanted to do my version of it... it was a total fail. Messy and gloopy, and too thick. I tried different swirling patterns - I think the easiest one was going from one side of the nail to the other, rather than going in circles. Another trick I did not master was balancing the amount of polish between the two colors.
Base coat of Nomad in Nude. Again, I love the nudes, but maybe they don't love me so much.
Swirled, dented, etc...
I kinda sorta like how the ring finger turned out. But it didn't save the mani - it was scrapped after I took the pix!
Would love to see a successful attempt - maybe I chose the wrong polish, or balance of polishes.
