Stripes and Sponge with a little bit of Holo.

Hi all today I have for you a Sponge Mani with an accent of stripes!
I started this mani with picking my colors Turned Up Turquoise (CG), White on White (CG),  Black Cream (WNW) and Mercury Twilight (Layla). I started off with a white base and sponging TUT on top...I mixed TUT with a bit of WOW for my lighter sponging color, and BC with TUT for the darker color. I then sponged a bit of Mercury Twilight on top to pull in the holo from my accent nail. 

I really liked how this turned out with the holo stripe that I added a bit sponged on the rest of my fingers.
Are you ready for Summer? We have had high temps for the past week up into the 80's and it's only spring...I'm kind of dreading the temperature of this summer but I really am ready for more bright colors.

Holographic Quick Shot.... Mermaid Spell

Hey everybody! Today is the start of something new for Pat and me, we are going to start a once a week holographic quick shot day. On Tuesday's we are going to bring you a short post of one of our holo polishes. With all the new holo polishes out right now (and more to come) we thought you might like something pretty to look at :) So here is today's post....

Today I have for your holo quick shot #6 Mermaid Spell from Layla. I used a base coat of Barefoot in Blue from Essie and this is the final look:)

Happy Polishing Everybody:)
Love,

Ocean Rush

Good morning everyone! ^_^ Today's post I have for you Layla Ocean Rush! Such a beautiful color I just wish I could have captured her better for y'all. To start off let me share I started off with a base coat  then a coat of Ocean Rush >.> waited a bit...<.< second coat a bit of balding >.< oh that's ok I can fix that right up after I wait a bit I'll add another coat right? well I tried that Ladies I really did v_v complete fail! So I look around what do I have that would come close for an underwear base coat? *LIGHTBULB* KleanColor Metallic Aqua that I just got in a swap! Absolutely the perfect underwear for Ocean Rush! So I started over! One Coat of base, ONE coat of KleanColor metallic Aqua, and ONE coat of Ocean Rush (again no topcoat)! Let's have a look!

I have to say KleanColor Metallic Aqua saved the day! I loved how this looked on me and I can't wait to wear it again! 

What is your favorite polish in your collection?

Mercury Twilight

Hello All! Today I have for you Layla Mercury Twilight...When I saw these on the Ulta website I went crazy! I needed a silver LINEAR holo because I don't own one. The price was a little on the high side for me at $15.50 per bottle but with a gift card I recently got I knew I could get two! So the down side I found with these is that they bald really easy and if you put a top coat on them you can kiss your linear holo G-O-O-D-B-Y-E! And yes I tried it with 5 different top coat's I own and all of them dulled it...I haven't tried it with my CG holographic topcoat yet but I might (maybe on the last day just in case). So this is 3 coats with a coat of top coat in-between coat 2 and 3. 

Oh yea that baby SHINES! I love it!!!! I'm glad I didn't pick another color to go with instead of the silver because this was needed in my book. It truly is amazing!
So what do you think?

Apple Butterflies!

Hello everyone ^_^. Today I have Zoya Apple (from the Sunshine Collection).... Apple is so beautiful and sparkly <3 (2 coats). Let's take a look.

I then decided to water-marble with black and clear because I wanted my base color to show through and I know that glitter doesn't water-marble well.

I have been looking searching pinterest for butterfly water marbles. So I decided it looked butterfly-ish enough that I thought it needed dots. I used a toothpick as I already had it out and got out my Layla Mercury Twilight...I love how this turned out!

See how shiny! I love this so much <3
Monday will kick off Holographic week here at Southern Sister Polish so come back and see what we have going on! <3
