Babe, Crown Me Already Manicure

Last Friday, I was meeting an old friend to celebrate her birthday and wanted to have my nails looking extra special. I brought out Sheswai Nail Lacquer in Babe (bright pink/watermelon) and Crown Me Already (sparkle-tastic, multi-size glitter) by OPI. I was wearing dark-colored clothing with pink neon shoes and these nails were the perfect addition to my outfit!

I used 2 coats (if I remember correctly) of Sheswai Babe and then used 3 coats of OPI Crown Me Already on my pointer. Then I added bits of Crown Me Already to the tips of all other fingers. Voila!!

I fell in love with my “Babe, Crown Me Already” manicure and could not stop gazing at my nails! The formula on Babe was fantastic and smooth. I topped it all off with one coat of Seche Vite top coat.

You can find Sheswai’s Babe (new for Spring/Summer 2012) at SheswaiBeauty.com for $16.00. You can find OPI at your beauty supply stores, ULTA, Amazon.com, etc.

* I received the Sheswai Nail Lacquer for review, I purchased the OPI, all opinions expressed are my own. *

What do you think of my Babe, Crown Me Already manicure? What do you like to wear on a Friday night?

  Thanks Kath! I was so tempted to go crazy with the sparkle but kept it to a minimum :).

  Thanks! It’s not bad if you use pure acetone and hold the cotton over your nail for a bit. It’s all about the patience :).
