Today's mani: water-fall

Hey all! Man, I've been a slacker lately, haven't I? I'm gonna try to get back on the horse with blogging this week, I promise!

Today I felt like doing another waterfall mani like the one I did for the 31-Day Challenge. I decided, naturally, to use fall colors (hence "water-fall"! How clever am I?).

For the base color I used Revlon Stormy Night, and for the stripes L'Oreal Spice Things Up and Eiffel For You, Essie Sand Tropez, and Revlon Gold Coin. It reminds me a bit of turkey feathers!

31-Day Challenge #21: inspired by a color

I wasn't totally sure what "inspired by a color" means, so for today's mani I just picked a color I love and went crazy with it. :-P Teal is my favorite color besides purple, so I gathered a bunch of blue-green polishes and did a waterfall mani a la The Nailasaurus. Mine is not as neat as hers, because I used a bigger brush, but I like how it looks (it's quite waterfall-ish, don't you think?).

I started with a base of OPI My Vampire Is Buff, and did stripes of Essie Naughty Nautical, Color Club Age of Aquarius, Color Club Wild Cactus and Julep Lena, and accented it with OPI Goldeneye. I like how the off-white base looks like foam at the bottom of a waterfall!

And here's a bonus Trudy for your enjoyment:
