Sweetcheeks II - Matte and Jelly Holos

Hello, Fireflies!

Today, I bring you three more Sweetcheeks polishes.  Ready? And...

First, Sweetcheeks Polish in Vous Etes Mon Soleil.  Now, I don't speak French, but I think this means, "You are my sun."  or "Beer, please?"  I know for sure ONE thing it doesn't say, because of the song Lady Marmalade.

This is a holo matte polish! Kinda cool, actually.  I did a striping tape design, and painted Sweetcheeks Polish Black Ice over the tape.

And, like I always tell you not to do, I didn't let the base polish dry completely.  So, the tape pulled off all the purple polish underneath it.  I was saying some stuff, Pardon My French, if ya know what I mean.

So, one of these nails has been doctored, and the other hasn't.  But look at how pretty it all is with topcoat on?

Bonus polish:  This is Sweetcheeks Polish Eric, a brown jelly with green shimmer.  I think it's pretty.  But, Eric has a dark side.  He is thick and not very well pigmented.  So, I had to use 4 layers to get this much color, and for the shimmer to show up.

But, why is there no nail art on it? Because it didn't dry fast enough, and I banged it all up.  So, this is a polish for those who are patient! And less clumsy than I am. 

Did you miss yesterday's post with two other Sweetcheeks polishes and some floral nail art?  It's HERE if you want to go see it.  If you'd like more information about Sweetcheeks Polish, you can find them on Facebook and Etsy.

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.
