Sweetcheeks I - Satin and Glitter

Hello, Fireflies!

Today and tomorrow, I'd like to show you some looks I created with a new-to-me Indie from Canada, Sweetcheeks Polish.  She offered a blogger discount that I found irrestistible!

I started with Sweetcheeks Polish Red Rainbow and Midas Rose.  Red Rainbow is a jelly packed with holo glitters.  It applied a little thick, but manageable.  Midas Rose is a satin gold with a hint of pink.  I was hoping for a little more pink shimmer.  It's there, but super subtle.

Have you seen the nail art by Kimiko7878 on Instagram?  She does some amazing stuff that I can't hope to copy, but I am inspired by her talent.  I really loved this floral accent nail she did.  I started my version by using a black striper for the branches.

I used SpaRitual Peace and Harmony, a satin/matte finish white to make the flower petals and some dots. It's pretty sheer, so I laid on a thick drop and spread it out a little.

I used a little more Red Rainbow in the centers of the flowers, and finished off with a few tiny dots of black.


Who needs long nails and painting skillz?  I got nubbins and a crayon, homies.

I was hoping the Red Rainbow would bring out some of the pink in Midas Rose, but it didn't really.  But, I still liked the effect.  If you did, too, stay tuned - tomorrow I have 3 more Sweetcheeks polishes to show you.

If you'd like more information about Sweetcheeks Polish, you can find them on Facebook and Etsy.
