Hi all,
This will be a short post since I have a lot on my mind right now and I don't really feel like blogging. It will take me some time to get back in the mood, to call it that way. Anyhow, on to pictures of my very first selfmade franken.
Aparecium, two coats in daylight. The color in this picture is not true to life: it's lighter and more dusty. A bit more like in the next pic, actually.
Aparecium, two coats in daylight. Aparecium is a dusty medium purple frosty with multicolored shimmer that you can only see when you're looking at your nails in direct light. The shimmer is red, silver, purple and blue and very pretty to look at.
The name comes from a spell from Harry Potter that forces invisible ink to show. It was an idea of Natasja to name this franken Aparecium and I found it very suitable because of the hidden shimmer. Thanks, Natasja!
The receipe for this one is approx. three quarters of a bottle of Catrice Just Married (light pink shimmer), about a quarter of a bottle of Color Club Electronica and I used China Glaze Ink to darken the color, since I didn't have a black creme to do it with.
A review on the ManGlaze Frankenjuggs will follow in the future :)

OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede
Hi all!
Not too long ago, pictures appeared of a new OPI Suede. It was green! You can't imagine how thrilled I was with this one.. A green suede. The Suedes are among my favorite polishes ever, because they're pretty, quickdry and opaque in one or two coats. I got my bottle in a week ago. Let's take a look at some pictures!
OPI Here Today, Aragon Suede, two coats in daylight. HTAT Suede is a medium green with very fine shimmer. The finish is different from the other suedes; this one has a more dusty feel to it and the shimmer is really small. It's pretty though! Let's take a close look at the finish:
OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede closeup. See the fine shimmer? I really like it.
Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede is a lot lighter than the original Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow, but I don't mind. I think it's a gorgeous shade of green.
Of course, it had to be made shiny.. So I put some topcoat on it.
OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede with topcoat. Shiny! It brings a little more depth to the polish and makes it less dusty, but it holds on to the feel it has in the suede look.
Closeup:
And the closeupshot to make this one complete. I really like it shiny as well!
Application was good. The polish is easily opaque in two coats and since it's a Suede, it dries very quick.
What do you think of OPI Here Today, Aragon Tomorrow Suede? Will you be getting a bottle for yourself or do you already own it? Let me know what you think!
