Jelly Sandwich With a Flower Instead of Glitter !!

This is a jelly sandwich with a flower instead of glitter, using Loaded Lacquer's Pomegranate.  I started with a coat of Pomegranate, then created a flower with dots using Orly's Goth & OPI's I Just Can't Cope-acabana.  Then I applied another thin coat of Pomegranate.  I also tried a matte top coat after and I think it really creates a cool effect.

 

This is such a cool technique.  I first tried this during the #31DC2013 with a teal green here.

 If you are looking for some unique and high quality polish that is easy to work with, I would recommend taking a look at Loaded Lacquer.  They can be found here.

Layered Nail Pattern

This is what I call a 'layered nail design.'  I used Orly Goth (2 coats) and let it dry completely.  I then, one by one, painted a layer of Sally Hansen Wet Cement and immediately dragged a comb over it.  This is the result...I kind of like it.

Marble Effect Manicure

All you need is a small sponge and a couple of different colours of nail polish and voilà!  I used Orly Goth and Julep Alma.  Goth has a black base with subtle silver glitter.  Alma is a chartreuse colour, leaning more towards yellow and  very unique.  It creates a marble effect.
