Finger Painting: Boy Oh Boy

In yesterday's blog post, I showed off my goodies given to me by Nicole V. that she included with my Almay giveaway prize.

Amongst my gifts, were two nail polishes which I had never tried before until she gave them to me.

Jordana Nail Polish 978 Boy Oh Boy
Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat 06 Antiqued Gold

One coat of Boy Oh Boy with flash.
Still a bit streaky.

Two coats of Boy Oh Boy with flash.
Completely opaque.

One coat of Antiqued Gold.

I wore this look on Saturday for the first time for a family reunion on the beach. I thought the colors were perfect beach themed colors. There is a pretty sea blue and a beautiful sandy gold.

The Jordana nail polish is very glossy which I love. The label on the bottle recommends between 2-3 coats. Two was enough for me.

The Sally Hansen nail polish was so fun to use. I don't have any crackle nail polishes. I tried to take a picture of what it looked like when I applied it but it began to crack very fast. What I did notice with this crackle formula (it might be the same with all crackle formulas) is that you cannot apply crackle polish to your nail that already has crackle polish. It won't crackle if you layer it on. I find that a single, thin application works best. Correct me if I am wrong. This is my first experience with any crackle nail polish.

All in all, I really like these two nail polishes. When I saw that Nicole had included nail polish in my package, I was really excited because I have been wanting to grow my nail polish collection. This is a good start. Thanks, Nicole.

Luv & Luk,
