Update on NOTD experiment & kitty pic

A week ago yesterday I showed you my NOTD and said I was going to do an experiment.  I used a coat of Wet N Wild Spoiled over my manicure, to see if it would help it last.  Here's when I first did my nails-

And here's what my nails looked like yesterday-

You can see there is significant tip wear, and a few small chips.  I have more chips today, but I think the Wet N Wild Spoiled Xray did help my polish stay on longer.  Usually after 3 or 4 days my polish is chipped so bad I HAVE to remove it and start over.  I'm kind of glad this has chipped-I find the more I look at this shade (Revlon Scandalous) te more I do not like it.  I'm so ready for a polish change!

Just for fun I thought I'd share a picture of one of my cats.  This is Simon.  He was hanging out on the couch yesterday and I noticed his tongue was sticking out, so I had to snap a pic.

See the tiny little bit of his tongue sticking out? 



NOTD-Revlon Scandalous & an experiment

I missed out on Facets of Fuchsia when it came out, so I was happy to hear it had been re-released and named Scandalous.  I knew I wanted to get it, but didn't actively go out on a mad hunt for it.  I had stopped at Walgreens one day for a Wet N Wild copper eyeliner and there was one bottle of Scandalous so I snatched it.  It's sort of a transparent black jelly base with LOADS of small purple glitter and larger pieces of purple glitter. I was having trouble picking what I wanted to paint my nails with and kiwimitts2 (aka Kristie) chose Scandalous for me. Thank you Kristie!  Ok, on to the pictures!

This is 2 coats of Scandalous (over my Sally Hansen Double Duty Base Coat and Top Coat).  This is where my experiment comes in. Remember my manicure that lasted 2 weeks?  I really think it had something to do with the Wet N Wild Spoiled polish I had used.  My husband and son both needed chapstick so I ran to CVS this morning and grabbed this-

After the 2 coats of Scandalous had a few minutes to dry I added a layer of Wet N Wild Spoiled in X-Ray Vision, and then applied my Seche Vite.  I'm curious to see if my polish lasts so well again. I would have to say if it does, it's because of the Wet N Wild Spoiled polish.  And they're only $1.99 so how awesome would that be?!  Whatever the results come out to be I will definitely share them.
