Yesterday was my first day at work and it went great! I'm really excited about this job. It feels good to have a nice job with normal hours. The people I work with are all really nice as well. That always makes things a lot better :D. I'm super happy!
Today I have my first glitter-jelly sandwich. As a treat to my self for getting this new job I rewarded myself by getting an Orange jelly. What color more perfect than O.P.I's Ya'll Come Back Ya Hear? (which has an amazing formula). I am so IN LOVE with how this turned out. And I also cannot believe that it took me so long to try one of these. They look like some sort of candy or cracked glass marble... LOVE THIS!
I started with Two coats of Ya'll Come Back ya Hear? Then I applied one coat of $OPI Only Gold for Me. I decided that was not blingy or flashy enough so I switched to Milani's Gold FX which really gave me the fish- scale look I wanted. So I "applied" Two coats of Milani Gold FX. I finished off with one more coat of YCBYH? and topped the whole thing off with some Seche Vite for extra shine and to dry all those layers o.O
I'm not looking forward to removal.. But who cares when it looks this awesome! I feel like a fiery mermaid or something. I have soooo many ideas for more glitter-jelly sandwiches. These are a great and easy way to make your nails look fierce and like you put a ton of work into them... YAY!Have you tried a glitter sammich? What is your favorite combo?
Love it!
ReplyDeleteI have both of those polishes. I'll add this to the list of manis that I want to do. Check out my blogsale too. Everything is new!
ReplyDeleteI have being craving a orange at the moment cause i noticed the other day that i dont have a single orange >.< I think this might be the one for me :) I did a jelly sandwich with an amazing green jelly the other day from an Australian brand - Australis - with Sinful Colors Nail Junkie sandwiched in between. It was beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteI love this! It's perfect for the Summery weather over here in Australia!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a cute design for summer! :)
ReplyDeletegorgeous! I love this glitter sandwhich
ReplyDeletegorgeous combo.
ReplyDeleteLove this combo. I need to add thinner to my Milani Gold FX so bad so I can do this
ReplyDeleteThis look so so pretty! I've never tried a jelly sandwich. You've inspired me to give it a go!
ReplyDelete:O !!!! THIS IS AMAZING!!!
ReplyDeletethanks for this, I bought that OPI just to do jelly sandwiches and hadn't been brave enough to try yet!
ReplyDeleteThat's so awesome! I don't think I can wear the orange to work, but a pink might work!
ReplyDeleteEasy way to remove, I saw on YouTube. Cut a cotton round in half, apply nail polish remover, place on nail, wrap the top of your finger in tinfoil, remove after about 10? mins. It was so awesome, the glitter and every thing came right off!
So glad you like your new job!! : )
I LOVE this! Everytime I go to the salon they have this lonely bottle of YCBYH? and I've been debating buying it since I love the other jellies I have from that collection. I think your post just sealed the deal- next time I go it comes home with me! haha!
ReplyDeleteThat looks great!! I almost bought the Milani Gems polishes, but I passed on them. I think I will pick them up next time so I can do something like this. :)
ReplyDeleteMermaid was the perfect description of this mani! I love the look, and how cheerful orange is. I have not tried a sandwich yet, but this one makes me want to run out and give it a try.
ReplyDeleteI luv jelly sandwiches!!! I have that shade along with the other sorbets from that collec and they are lovely!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so cool! Like a goldfish!
ReplyDeleteLike golden coins under some... juice :P. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that color combo! I keep seeing the hexagonal glitter coats online, but I haven't come cross any yet. Might have to start searching harder.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! Makes me think of koi fish in a pond :D
ReplyDeleteAmazing!! I must try somthing like this :D
ReplyDeleteI love it! I must try. And I love orange.
ReplyDeleteFab-U-Lous!!!! I have to look at my large Klenecolors to see is I have a large hex gold. I the this OPI sorbet. It's fun to put on brights in the middle of winter!
ReplyDeleteI love this combo what a great color, and congrats on the new job!!!
