Looking On the Bright Side

Orly Key Lime Twist Skittlette with Stamping and Mirror Ball

If you've been keeping up with recent posts then you've already read all about my adventures in moving and getting a new job. I was so relieved to find out I could keep painting my nails any crazy way I like so I celebrated with this super bright skittlette. Things are finally starting to look up after going through a lot of stress. I was able to schedule some time off work to go back and help move my husband and cat and incredible amounts of stuff. The U-Haul is reserved and I'm so glad I only have to wait another week and a half. It was starting to feel like I may never see them again, but then I am kind of dramatic.

For my skittlette I used Key Lime Twist and Mirror Ball from Orly. Key Lime Twist has a pretty good formula for such a bright neon. I used three coats to even out a tiny bit of streaky-ness and make it look super bright. I also used three coats of Mirror Ball for extra holo coverage. My stamped nail is two coats of Sinful Colors, Snow Me White with Mundo de Unas black stamping polish and Bundle Monster plate BM-604. I stuck on an iridescent rhinestone from a pack I got on eBay to finish it all off.

Below is a shot in the sun to show off the holo and how bright this Orly polish is. These were really fun to wear and were almost enough to cheer me up from missing my family and old home. Soon, it will all be worth it. :)
