Electric Midnight Blue


Hello, Fireflies!

This month's Nail Challenge Collaborative challenge is Our Favorite Color.  My fave color for as long as I can remember has been Midnight Blue.  It's kinda hard to capture in polish, as it can easily go too dark and end up black.  But I was able to pick 4 polishes that closely resembled what I love about the deep, dark, mysterious Midnight Blue.

I started with Seche Hypnotic, an electric/metallic midnight blue.

It has some brightness where the light hits, and some areas of shadows.  It's a one-coater, too.  I decided to add another of my faves, flakies, to it with Liquidus Lapis.

Can you see the flakies?  Yeah, me, neither.  Not really.  Whomp, whomp.

So disappointing when a flakie doesn't deliver!  I'll try it over something else before I declare it a total fail.  After all, there are so many in the bottle.  Surely they have to show up sometime on the nail, right?

Thank you for your comments! They mean so much to me, and I read all of them, even if I don't always have a chance to respond.
