The weird and funky - LA Girl, China Glaze, Revlon, Barry M.

I have some strange things to show you... I almost feel like I need to make Fugly Fridays along with Friday Favourites to post this first mani. But I'm not sure I want to make a trend out of this!

What on earth is going on with this mani? Basically, I went on a little glitter sammich blitz. The caption tells you what combos I used. LA Girl Glitter Addict Aqueous has blue (normal and holo) medium and fine glitter in a clear base. China Glaze Ring In The Red has heaps of fine to slightly larger red glitter in a slightly tinted red base.

I think I like the mani on my pinky and ring finger. It's very...superhero-ish in colour. The index and middle fingers look like blood splatters. All in all, the contrast between the colours makes this mani look rather dangerous for a glitter-filled concoction.

A little blurriness so that you can see how shiny it really is. All that glitter... :O~~

I decided to throw in this mani here because it's too lonely to get it's own post. 

Barry M. Chameleon Lilac
The above polish (one of the many gifts from Ev, from her globetrotting) results in the following two colours:

Barry M. Chameleon Lilac + clear top coat
How does that even happen?? It's such a drastic difference!

This is Barry M Color Change Chameleon Lilac. It's a light lilac in the bottle, and a silvery-lilac on the nails. But if you put a coat of clear topcoat over it, the light lilac changes into this deep, vibrant blurple. The thicker the coat, the more vibrant it is. I used Seche Vite over the ring finger, and I used a clear base coat for the tips of the other nails. I actually had to use more coats for the tips because the base coat polish was too thin. You can still see a slight colour difference between the ring finger and the others.

Chameleon Lilac can go on a bit too thick, which can result in bubbling so you have to apply in thin coats. But look at what fun you can have with it? Two nail polishes for the price of one! :D Thanks for such an interesting polish, Ev!

And that's all the wacky I have for you today!
