Mani Monday | Sheer Tints



This trio surely left their mark! I wasn't quite sure what to expect from OPI's Sheer Tints enamel. I wondered if it would only look good on top of certain nail colors and how long it would take me to discover which ones those were.

I was pleasantly surprised to see this purple hue look nice against a bare nail, as well as on top of OPI's Where Did Suzi's Man-go?. It brought the sorbet orange enamel to a raspberry sorbet and I love it! (Instant smile, in fact!) It's quite thick in texture, so an even stroke is important for a smooth, clean finish. Unless of course you're going for a textured look, then experimental strokes will do!

Definitely going to check out other Sheer Tint colors (perhaps blue next?), because Don't Violet Me Down surely satisfied and will be making several appearances!

Want to have more Mani Monday fun? Take a look at the first coat in Mani Monday | Where Did Suzi's Man-go and Crayola Magic.

turquoise & caicos by essie

Just a short bit ago, dré posted about the mint craze. I am definitely on board, but wanted to try something that was a notch up in the mint department to suite my complexion. From the same line, I'm wearing turquoise & caicos, and it looks great with my skin tone. Of course, I took the liberty of adding a little sparkle n' shine with OPI's Pirouette My Whistle.

Whether you're light and sweet or rich and turquoise, I think you'll agree with me when I say: I'd rather be in Caicos!

Predictions Please!

I recently read a 2013 prediction. It is forecasting that 2013 will be the year of the double accent nail! Only time will tell if it will be true or false, but either way, we hope you heard the breaking news here first! Let us know your thoughts! Love it or hate it? Let us have it! Below is an image of what to expect!

XOXO Dré
