Evolving Nails: Delicate Flesh

It has been a while since either of us has done a real "evolving nail" sort of post. When I swatched the CNC Taupey Tips the other day, I couldn't bear to take it off...and since I still had a few other polishes on my desk, this manicure was born.




Colors Used

Carpe Noctem Cosmetics Taupey Tips
Octopus Party Who's Got Their Claus in You
Octopus Party Body Electric
(nyc matte top coat)


I didn't really have a plan when I started this manicure. I was so in love with Taupey Tips that I wanted to figure a way to wear it longer. I am obsessed with rose gold lately, and since Body Electric was still on my desk, I figured it was a sign. I mixed the two OPNL polishes together, and sponged them on haphazardly. I love that from far away, it almost looks like marble. Up close, it looks like mottled-but-pretty flesh...which apparently I tend to do often. I don't know what is wrong with my brain.


I will have the final installment in a few days time! I put waaay more effort into it than is reasonable, and I am in love with the outcome. I think one of my polish-related resolutions should definitely be to do more artsy nail...art things. That sentence sucked, but you know what I mean!
