I think I found the perfect polish for a MG mani. It's Kleancolor's My Valentine. Funny, name for this certain polish, as it really does look like it was made to e be a Mardi Gras polish. Def. not Valentine colors.
I used one of the new Tronica polishes from China Glaze, as my base for the Kleancolor polish. I tried to use My Valentine on it's own, and it was one hot mess! The Troncia color I used is Virtual Violet. VV is a grape purple holo. It's a great color. I'm def. going to have to wear it again soon on it's own. I used two coats of Virtual Violet, but could have easily gotten away with one coat. Application was wonderful. I topped it off with two coats of the Kleancolor My Valentine. My Valentine has small purple glitter and green,gold and silver hex glitter in a clear base.
First up pics. of the finished product.

And just because, here's one pic. of Kleancolor My Valentine on it's own.
See what I mean? On it's own....hot mess, but with another color it's great!
Thanks for looking! I hope you all have a great day! :-)

ReplyDeleteJust a perfect manicure for Mardi Gras! Love that polish. Virtual Violet is a fantastic purple holo. I've got to have the whole collection. I don't celebrate Mardi Gras either. Rather I have Fat Tuesday. Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday and time to start Lent.
