Cheetah Nails

I was watching Castle the other day and Martha was wearing a red cheetah print cardigan.   I liked how it looked so I tried to replicate it.

 I started off with a base of Zoya's Kristi
 
 This is such a pretty tomato red.  The formula was nice and smooth with no bubbles or bald spots, it even played nice with a QD topcoat.
 I added the cheetah print by using the Sugar Bubbles plate 002 and KC in black.


 Than I ruined it by adding a black and grey gradient.
 I really need to work on my gradients, oh well.
Thanks for stopping by!

Untried Tuesday - Essie For The Twill of It

Essie, For The Twill of It, is from their fall collection.  I picked this up from Ulta for $8.
 This is a duo chrome the goes from grey to purple and teal.
 The application was great, it went on smooth with no issues.  I used two coats with a top coat.  It looks almost like a metallic finish but it's not.
In the shade it looks more green
