How I Wore It: Cirque Back to Basics Collection

(**Press Samples**)

 Happy Wednesday beauties! Today's look goes back to basics. Who doesn't love a classic palette of Black and White? Long time LTHP readers know how much I adore working with these simple colors. Cirque Nail Lacquer recently released new B&W creme shades in her Back to Basics collection. I was very excited to see Cirque venture into making cremes; and even more excited to see she started out with a black and a white creme. More after the jump.

Cirque Memento Mori- A super opaque, and extremely shiny, black creme. This shade has such perfect saturation of color I could have almost gotten away with one coat. I am so impressed with this beautiful shade of shiny patent leather black.
Cirque Carpe Diem- This shade is a clean, crisp white creme. I am so smitten with this shade, and I will tell you why. Carpe Diem is a creme, yes... BUT as I was applying it I noticed that there was a hidden micro shimmer that makes this White creme look radiant and beautiful. The formula on this shade is great and only needed two coats.

 I accented my B&W nail art with rich Golden sparkles, also by Cirque. On my index and middle nail I used Cirque Helios for a soft glittering gradient over my B&W gradient.  Over my Ring and Pinkie nails I used Cirque Au. I finished my nails off with a coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast top coat.

So... How beautiful is this?! I'm a sucker for clean, white nails.

 The Cirque Back to Basics collection is available from the Cirque Colors website and retail for $13.00.

Thanks for coming by today and happy humpday!
