This another one of Julep’s August colors. Melanie is a pastel indigo metallic chrome polish. I love the way this looks in different lights. It’s like a light denim blue. This was easy to use and went on without any problems. I used Nail Envy Matt by OPI as a base coat, two layers of Melanie by Julep, and Double Duty by Sally Hansen as a top coat.

Have a great weekend!!!! 🙂
Today I am sharing one of Julep’s August polishes, Alfre. I received my August box last week and couldn’t wait to use one. Alfre is a fun purple metallic polish. It is easy to use and applied in two coats. It is a fast drying polish. Now for the details, I used Nail Envy by OPI as a base coat, two coats of Alfre by Julep, and a top coat of Double Duty by Sally Hansen. I want to remind everyone that Julep has an introduction box that you can get for $1 with this code COLOR2012.

Have a great and colorful day!!
I love to watch the Olympics. I root for the USA, but always cheer for great performances by all the athletes. I love to watch all the different sports events that don’t get the attention any other time. I believe that just making it to the Olympics makes them champions, so I am saluting all the athletes with this polish, Going for Gold by the Color Institute. This is a sheer gold micro glitter that could be used over other colors to dust them with gold.
Now for the details: I used Nail Envy Matt by OPI for my base coat, three coats of Going for Gold to get the coverage I wanted, and Double Duty by Sally Hansen as a top coat. I took several pictures including a micro shot to show the detail of the polish.

I may not be able to go to Italy, but I can wear the Tuscan Sun on my nails. It’s like having a little touch of Italy with me to spice up my life. Now for the details: one coat of Nail Envy by OPI as a base coat, one coat of Tuscan Sun by Revlon, and one coat of double Duty by sally Hansen as a top coat. This polish was easy to use and covered in one coat.

Had the day off yesterday and thought it would be a good time to change my nail polish. I decided to go with one of my new ones that I got Friday at Ross. Its a sheer pink polish by Sally Hansen called Glow. I took the old one off and settled in to begin the new color. I used Nail Envy Matt by OPI as my base coat. Then I used Glow by Sally Hansen. As I said this is a sheer polish so I used two coats for better coverage. Finally I used Double Duty by Sally Hansen as a top coat. I like this soft color. Sometimes that’s all you need to make a quiet statement.
Now for the pictures.
