Ohh, I do luv denim (2)

A very Chilly Day to you all :D I'm so glad today's a really chilly day. You can say I'm one who prefers chilly weather than hot ones - if you haven't guessed the reason, its because I get to yearn for Peppermint Hot Chocolate. Love that drink! Its just too bad drinks like this isn't so available around. Though I yearn them, I can't quite feed the craving. Let's just hope there's plenty when December comes :) 

To continue my love for denims, I have another denim nails to show. Can't put a good painted navy base to waste now, can I? ;P So for this Bleached Denim II look, I've used Saran/cling wrap technique.Topping off with a matte top coat (unfortunately, you can see brush drags there) I honestly hadn't quite notice the dragging until I viewed the pictures on computer. =/

So how do you think they turn out? I love the thumb the best. It was the first one done and the one with the best denim looking outcome. I dot on two antique silver on the denim to create buttons but... yeah you could see that they were too close together. I did like the effect achieve on the ring finger which  is why I decided to just let it be and improve on future tries. Well, at the very least, now I know what don't work. :) 

Nail polishes involved: 
  • Tip Top Nails South Africa - I luv denim (the dark navy shade)
  • OPI - My Boyfriend Scales Walls
  • Konad Special Nail Polish - Light Bronze
  • Etude House - Help My Finger Matte Top Coat

  1. I like the thumb best too. Would you recommend the Etude House matte top coat or no?

    1. Yes, I would. I just tested out earlier, protecting the colours with clear top coat first (a good one that doesn't smear, like seche vite) and then top over the matte top coat. Works fine that way.
