Finger Paints ~
Brilliant Brushstrokes
Warm cherry red
with golden microshimmer
Here’s another brand that I managed to get my hands on
through a blog sale. I find it a very nice way to buy some stuff that isn’t
easily available in my part of the world.
When I saw the actual bottle I thought that I bought
something that wasn’t me at all. I didn’t realize that the microshimmer was
golden when I bought it. I decided to give it a go anyway – I did pay for it
after all. :D
I was very positively surprised. I’m not usually into
golden tones, but I think this particular polish looks okay on my nails. The formula
was great, btw. No problems at all with the application, and it took two coats
to reach full opacity.
No top coat yet:
I decided to stamp on this. I wanted a ladybird
design, so I picked polka dots from plate KD3 and a cute little ladybird from
plate H22. I used a no name black stamping polish.
I stamped one ladybird on the ring finger and two on
the thumbnail.
I used Poshé top coat, which usually doesn’t pull on
my designs, but I can see that it did today anyways. Oh well.
What do you think? Do you like the ladybirds?

It's a lovely shade
ReplyDeleteThanks. It's more golden than I'd usually go for.
DeleteI think this shade really suits you. And your nail art is cute :-)
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you. The nail art definitely helped me accept the shade more. :)
DeleteCute design on a lovely color!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I can't wait to see the first real ladybug!!
DeleteVery pretty nail polish shade and I love the ladybird mani!
ReplyDeleteI must admit that I was quite pleased with the ladybirds myself. Thanks! :D
DeleteVery pretty colour! Cute stamping!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much. I love ladybirds! :)
DeleteVery fun mani! My husband calls these bugs "lady beetles".
ReplyDeleteAww, that's such a sweet name for them! I'll remember that. :)
DeleteStrange name, but the color is nice and I really like the ladybird design.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I wondered about the name too, it's weird! :)
Deletehee hee love the wee lady birds x
ReplyDeleteI just knew you would! Xx
DeleteHello! = D
ReplyDeleteThank you for your visit and comment!
The Disco Ball and very beautiful copy of Techno (China Glaze), is not it? ^_~
Hello! :)
DeleteYes, they look very much the same. I really like them both! ;D
I love the shade on you, and your artwork is very cute. Why would you not buy this again? Is it just the shade or the Fingerpaints brand?
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely the shade. The polish itself was very nice to work with, and I did in fact buy a couple of Finger Paint polishes, I just haven't tried on yet. :)
DeleteSo cute! I love this red!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! :)
DeleteI love this! My niece would love the ladybugs!
ReplyDeleteAnd the lady bugs would look good on her, for sure! :)
DeleteThis is SO cute! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! :)
DeletePretty! I love gold shimmer, but I don't like yellow-toned reds. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteWeird, that's what it is :D Haha!!
