OPI Black Shatter has arrived!!

YAY, Black Shatter is finally here!! I was soooo excited when it arrived!! I wanted to try 2 different manis, so I decided to layer it over a sparkly gold & then a flakie.

Here is the first one I tried....I did a base of Orly Luxe and then a coat of China Glaze Medallion, which FYI is my fave sparkly gold glitter! Black Shatter needs to be used over a 100% dry mani, and used VERY quickly. I actually prefer the smaller cracked looked, like in my previous post, but this is still nice.

Then I wanted to try it over a flakie, so I used a base of Love & Beauty, from Forever 21, and then added Nfu-Oh 50 over top.

1 word.......BEAUTIFUL!!

Now here it is with Black Shatter over top

Custom Polish Book Case & Flakie Fun....PIC HEAVY POST

Okay, so for months I've been thinking about how I could 'display' my polish. I insisted on seeing them all, because it's a form of art to me, lol. Well one of our neighbors brothers, can basically build ANYTHING, so he came over, and checked out what I needed and the space I had available. Well this is my new 'Art Piece', lol. I LOVE it, and he made it to match all of our living room furniture since, it's in the living room, lol.

Well...here is my before.. It was a complete MESS, and angered me, every time I had to find a certain polish.

Here is the shelf, empty, and the hubbs

Now it's filled, with most of my polishes, he's so proud! It fit most of them, I might need a sister one, lol 

and my daughter wanted a pic on here too, lol. Oh and the pup, is Grandpa, a 16 year old mix, we adopted a few months ago

Here is the top half

Now onto the mani, as much as I love my Nfu-Oh flakies, well the few I have, I don't find myself using them very often. Well yesterday, I decided to have a little fun with one. Nfu-Oh 51.For this mani I used a base of Color Clubs Fashion Addict, 2 coats of Nfu-Oh 51, my regular black & Essie Matte About You, later down the road, lol, and of course Scotch tape. Here was what my final mani ended up looking like. I actually preferred it, the step before it got to this point. You'll see.

Not only do I ADORE their bottles, but look at the rainbow inside!!!!

This was 1 coat of Fashion Addict, and 2 coats of 51

Then I decided to use Matte About You. I really like matted flakies :)

Then I did a funky french with black tips, and if you haven't noticed, I love mixing up finishes!! This is how I love this mani the most!!

But, being me, I just had to see what it would all look like shiny again.



What do you all think? Do you like matte flakies????

Nfu-Oh 64...the best pink holo around!

If you're looking for some great holos, Nfu-Oh has some of the best IMO. This was my first from the, 064. I'm a pink fan, so I couldn't resit. Application was fine with these, although Aqua Base is suggested a base for their holo.
