Coffee Candy Cane

Have you ever had/seen those gourmet candy canes? You know, the coffee, cappuccino  or espresso flavoured ones? Well, this mani reminds me very strongly of those ones.

Nov/14/2012

I used a striping brush and regular nail polish to make these. The lines are a touch wobbly as I was a bit wobbly the other day. Also, I must apologize for the dents, my hair lately seems to be attracted to wet nail polish :(.  The colours I used for this mani are "Copper", "Expresso" by Kleancolor, and "Saturday Night Fever" by Sally Hansen.

Mini Haul

Bought a few new nail polishes today, and decided to test them out on my paws. From Left to right: "946 Hey Sailor" (China Glaze), "40575 Coffee Break" (Orly), "1004 Holly-day" (China Glaze), "1020 Poinsettia" (China Glaze). I don't normally buy more than one red at a time but I've been on the hunt for the "PERFECT" red. I like "Hey Sailor" because it's bright with warm orangey undertones, but I like "Poinsettia" for the blue-ish undertones. So far haven't found a shade that is dark enough with out being too dark. The hunt continues.
