NN3000 Goodies Continues...

I have a goal.  My goal is to eventually have swatches up of every polish I own.  That's an ambitious project for someone like me.  I have LOTS of bottles.  LOTS.  So, I like to show you my most recent acquisitions so it's fresh.  But please plan on seeing old and new as I go along.  Some will be still available to get, some will not.  But I'm doing this for the love of polish, and for YOU!  :)  So let's continue with my NN3000 newest goodies. 

 First up, Dionysus.  It's beautiful.  It's got multiple personalities, not all of which wanted to cooperate with the camera.  It's kind of like asking Sybil to show everyone on queue.  It doesn't always work like that.  SOOOO, I gave you an angled shot of it to try and see the multi colors you get in this bottle.  Then of course, the usual with-flash and no-flash shots.

See the mutli colors in the bottle?

 Next let's talk about a trio.  A trio exists, and I have two of them.  The trio includes Hook, Line & Sinker.   What a fun name for a trio of awesomeness that is NN3000 polishes!  First, let's see HOOK:  It's a soft silver, with holo, and almost a pearly metallicy kind of goodness to it.  The holo shines best in good lighting, or in photos with flash.

The other one of the trio I have to show, is SINKER.  That's right, I don't have hook.  But Sinker is just TOO pretty!!  It's so pretty, it was worth taking three photos of it to show you it's personality.  In dim light, it's a pretty pink.  In fact, it's a shade of pink I really like.  It's bright without being too bright, it's not punch-you-in-the-face pink either.  It's just right.  Anyway, I digress.... dim light, pink.  Slightly brighter light, you see holo beginning to show.  With flash (or sunlight), the holo in this goddess of a polish is like BAM!  HOLO PINK!!!  :)  So without further ado, photo time:

Soooo... I'm gonna let you ponder on these for a bit.  And of course, there's more coming!  This new NN3000 series is not over yet!  :)

Oh my aching nails!

If you could have seen my nails this morning, you would have laughed or groaned!  I have spent the last few nights falling off the wagon - the picking at my nails wagon - bad.  It was getting to the point where my fingertips were hurting!

Anyway, I looked at the sad state and decided to do some fake nails to keep me on the right track.  I feverishly buffed, snipped, glued, pressed, filed, etc.... and then I was ready for polish and art!

Now, I have recently received a bottle of one of my all time favorite colors, royal blue.  OH, how lovely it is!!!!!  What was this perfect, awesome, regal color polish, you ask?

NAILNATION3000 - "Take the Crown"
Now THIS is a color to drool for!  It's somewhat sheer on it's first coat, but after 2, it's nice.  I put on a third coat for good measure, just because a regal color deserves lots!  :)  This polish finishes an almost-matte finish, more like satin...but with Seche Vite over the top, it's dripping in royal blue shiny goodness.  <3

NEXT, take NN3000 - "Molten"  (A silver that stamps SOOOO well)  and Winstonia's squarish plate W04, and I did this mani:

I am seriously in love with this.  It's simple, stamping-wise, I just took the image and rotated it to stamp in various corners for a less uniform look.  Here's a pic of the plate:

The big flower on the middle left is on my thumbs.    Winstonia quality is awesome!!

Well, I'm off to stare at my fingers....
