Share the Love: Day 5. Wrapping up my 5 Days of Glitter!

Hello everyone! I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and if you are shopping today or already did your shopping on Black Friday, I hope you get everything you need and don't get trampled lol! Today is the last day in my journey with four other amazing bloggers in our Share the Love week. We each did a guest post on each other's blogs and we're finishing up the week by posting our last themed mani on our own blogs. As you may know, my theme for the week was glitter (honesly.. are you surprised? lol). I figured in honor of Black Friday and the big kick-off for Christmas shopping I would do a Christmas themed glitter manicure. I really like how this came out!

What I used:

OPI- Natural Nail Base Coat

Sally Hansen - French manicure natural color

China Glaze - Twinkle Lights (tips)

Sinful Colors nail art - Be My Valentine (red)

Sinful Colors nail art - Jungle (green)

Seche Vite - top coat

Don't forget to check out my guest posts from this week on everyone's blog! I really enjoyed doing this with such great bloggers! I met several awesome people and I am thankful for that! :) You girls ROCK!

Share the Love: Day 2, Guest post from Amanda of Amandalandish

Hello everyone! I am very excited to have Amanda of Amandalandish (Click here to check out her blog!) guest post on my blog today! Amanda is the one who had the idea for Share The Love! It has been super fun so far and I've had the pleasure of meeting several new blogger friends!! Kudos to Amanda for the great idea!! Please enjoy her post and don't forget to check out her blog!

Happy Tuesday!  And happy two day before Thanksgiving!




Day 2 of my 5 Days of Greys is the most jazzy of my greys and is the one I looked forward to swatching the most.  OPI Designer...De Better! was one of the two must-haves from the Muppet Collection (at least for me) and it truly photographed beautifully.




However...




I am super disappointed in how this looks on my nails in real life.  For some reason, it sorta falls flat.  While up close, you can see the lovely bronze glitter embedded within the silver foil, from far away, that edge gets lost and it just looks like a light champagne foil.  I know that bloggers have raved about this color which makes me all the more upset.  I don't know...I just wish there was more depth there when your face isn't two inches away from your hand.

Application was lovely in 3 coats.  I will definitely give this OPI another run before I officially give up on this and hopefully something will make this work on me.  If nothing else, it's nice to showcase something fun, different, and sparkly in the middle of the short work week.  




Thank you to all of Heather's lovely followers for reading and thank you to Heather for having me!




Stay tuned for Day 3 of my 5 Days of Greys over at Chelsea's Nailed Blog!
