Once In A Blue Mousse

Still working my way through the Lime Crime swatches ... =) I'm going to go back and add these to the original post as I get them done.

Lime Crime Once In A Blue Mousse is a fabulous robin's egg blue that applied like a dream. One coat is enough, but I did two for swatching purposes.

I'm trying to be creative and all that and do nail art with my polishes to show them off since my swatches aren't exactly the cat's meow and ya'll will just google or head over to Scrangie or Chalkboard Nails for better swatches, but in the moment, I can never think of anything interesting to do. So I do dots. haha

Then I decided I'd make it super abstract and add more color. That's where it all went wrong ... As I've mentioned before, Lime Crime Pastelchio tends to run a little with topcoat added. In an entire nail color it's fine, but adding it as an accent means it'll run into the other colors. See ...

I took pictures anyway but after that hot mess I took them off. I liked the blue and orange alone. I should do it again!

  4. Lovely light blue! And the dots match it perfectly, but I also liked the end look with the stripy design :D

  5. I really liked the finished product! Sucks about the running, but oh well! I also really dig the names of these Lime Crime polishes.
