An Experiment....

This week I sat down with my nail supplies and really had no set design in mind.   I decided to do some free hand art and see what happened.  I think my idea was good, but color choice could have been better. I ended up with this....

I really don't know what else to call it other than an experiment.  My sister suggested "bloody slashes" and my brother contributed "it looks like a Fast and the Furious car color."  I think I kind of agree with the bloody slashes lol.

The Great Crackle Disaster....

Ladies - I did what I swore I would never do - I bought a crackle.  My initial reaction to crackle polishes was mixed.  I thought some shades made fingernails look awesome and then others just made your hands look gross.  I mean when it comes down to it...you are basically creating a chipped design on your fingernail.  Isn't the goal to avoid chipping?  At least that's my goal.  I love doing my nails, but I love it even more when the design and polish lasts me an entire week with minimal wear and tear.  It doesn't happen all the time...but yea that's the goal. 

Pretty Pink Punk by Wet n Wild and White Out by Lizbel

But this weekend I was walking down the aisles of Rite Aid and came across Pretty Pink Punk by Wet n Wild.  With a name like Pretty Pink Punk, did anyone seriously think I wasn't going to pick that up and buy it? lol I loved the color and the fact that it was a crackle...intrigued me.  I figured - what the hell.  I've already joined the glitter madness - why not crackle?   But then I got home and this happened...
