My First Blog Post!

At the moment I'm wearing 'Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI?' from OPI's Spring/Summer 2012 Holland Collection, a muted grape-purple with micro-shimmer that shifts between red, orange, and pink. Unfortunately my camera doesn't seem to love this colour as much as I do, so I thought for my first few days of blogging I'd play catch-up on some of my past nails. 

First I'll show you one of my Easter manis from this year. I started with two coats of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear 'Lacey Lilac' (which I have and will post swatches of soon).  After that was dry, I taped off the area I wanted to leave purple, and painted on Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear 'Mint Sorbet', which is exactly the same colour as mint chocolate chip ice cream!  Next, I repeated the taping and painted on OPI 'Mod About You'. 


There is one coat of Seche Vite between each of the colours; I like to do this when I'm doing tape manis because it drastically shortens the wait time between steps. Impatient me!



I finished it off with one more coat of Seche Vite.  I love these colours together; so spring-y!

    Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words
    in your content seem to be running off the screen in
    Firefox. I'm not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with internet browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know.
    The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon.
    Thanks

    Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no back up.
    Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?

    At this time it seems like Expression Engine is the preferred
    blogging platform out there right now. (from what I've read) Is that what you are using on your blog?

    When I originally left a comment I appear to have clicked on
    the -Notify me when new comments are added-
    checkbox and from now on whenever a comment is added
    I get 4 emails with the same comment. There
    has to be a way you can remove me from that service?

    Cheers!
