Neon + Orange = Bassackwards?

Greetings and Nailutation,

It's been too many days away from my blog - this last week at work has been rough and I also started trying to eat better this week too, so meal prep/planning takes time away from blogging.  But the good news is the work craziness should get better after next week AND I've lost almost 4 pounds!

Today I will be sharing a mani for the groups 30 Days of Colour and Nail Challenge Collaborative.  I am combining 2 prompts: orange and neon.  Funny story - I grabbed this orange, threw it on & was confused.  It looked pink on me.  Then a quick google search told me that it was a THERMAL!  SURPRISE!


Let's get to the details!

Products used:
Girly Bits Cosmetics - Bassackwards (thermal from A Box Indied)
Girly Bits Cosmetics - GBC 1-01 Plate
Girly Bits Cosmetics - What A Rush Top Coat
Easy Peel - Latex Barrier
Clear Jelly Stamper - Big Bling Stamper (press sample)

I started with a swatch of Bassackwards and topped it with What A Rush Top coat.  This thermal was in A Box Indied - the September 2015 box and IT.STILL.WORKS!  I was so impressed the thermal was still very sensitive and gave me a nice french tip transition on my pinky/ring fingers.  Pointer and middle fingers I had to utilize a cold pack to keep the entire nail orange.




Then I decided to stamp over it with GBC 1-01 and Cobal with my Big Bling Stamper.  It's all topped with What A Rush.  I love how it turned out and loved the surprised this polish threw at me.

Happy Polishing,
