LynBDesigns ~ Seize the Day, Boys



LynBDesigns ~ Seize the Day, Boys
Blue toned green linear holo

Seize the Day, Boys is from the Spark of Madness collection. I love teals, and the title must be from the movie “The Dead Poets’ Society”, which is a brilliant movie! So yes please, come and join my stash, little polish!

I used two coats for this mani, but I’m pretty sure you need three coats if you got longer nails than I have. I decided to let two coats be enough. Drying time is good. I had no problems with the formula.

Here’s two coats and no topcoat, picture is taken with flash:


I love the rainbows in this polish!


Here’s a low light picture. The rainbows still want to pop, and here you can see the golden shimmer too.


I fucked it up, obviously. I don’t know why I can’t do leopard print, it’s so annoying. Other girls make it look ridiculously easy, but fact is that I can’t make it look good, grrrr!

But anyway, I post my fails too, as you know. So you’ll see for yourself in a moment. I used Ellagee’s “Shake a Poor Sinner’s Hand” for the spot and just a black striper from Claire’s to “surround” them. I topped the whole thing with topcoat and here’s my final mani taken with flash:


And here’s a low light picture:


The pretty bottles:



I know this is nowhere near perfect, but never mind, they can’t all be. This is a learning curve for me, and perhaps some day I’ll get to nail the leopard print technique too! Wish me luck! :D


Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Pretty good
Finish: Linear holo with flecks and shimmer
Overall impression: I love the name, the colour and the rainbows! It would have been even cooler without the golden touch, but that’s just because I’m not that much into golden looking polishes
Buy again: Yes

  3. Great nail polish, actually both of them. When it comes to leopard, it looks good, maybe a few lines are thicker but it looks OK, you aren't hopeless in this, no way. Great colour combo.
