Broken glass manicure


Ahhh i loved this so much. The biggest downside was that it was hard to clean up properly around the cuticles because the black polish I have is super thick, not to mention the clear base the flakies come in are usually fairly gooey as well. I still liked this manicure a lot though. I LOVED how much all the flakes stood out against the black color. I was doing it MAINLY to swatch what I do have, but yeah.

Here is the "swatches" if you will, compared on top of black polish with the names of the polish under the photos.

Essie's Shine of the Times + Nfu #40 flakie combined.
This one changed colors--a lot. Different lighting did different
things, which is pretty cool.

Tokidoki - Sandy

Studio M - Covered in Diamonds
Not the best picture of it, and it's a bit bubbly
because it's REALLY FRICKEN THICK POLISH.


lol cat hair. my thumb, which had Essie and Nfu.
Shows the changing flakes better.

Slight crap lighting. Lol at the little flake on my middle finger, I had to file it off.




There we go!
