Sponge-y Goodness

So the other night I got curious as to how a sponge mani would look. I did it with a red and green that had some gold undertones. It looked cool but too early for a Christmas look.

Last night when I was sitting around sick, I did this. (This is also after I cut my nails short)

This is Kleancolor Sea Ice with Kleancolor Cobalt sponged over. I love how it looks. I may grab some white and do the line between the two.
Enjoy!

Sally Hansen-Firm Fig

Sorry I've neglected this...I've been busy with moving and my nails have turned into a hot mess. During the move I cracked one and chipped the corner off another. They've been cut down but I have a couple of pictures of a mani I did before the move!

I present....Sally Hansen's Firm Fig. It's a quick dry polish and I wasn't a huge fan of the color in the bottle but I loved it on my nails. I grabbed it for about 2 dollars at Wal Mart. In some lights the color was redish, in others it was purple/pink. I liked that.

Here is a swatch:

And another with some crackle going horizontally.

I may get into the crackle thing if I do it like this. I loved the effect it had. This teaches us one thing! Hit up the dollar and clearance bins when you can. I found a winner in them. :)
