Nicole By OPI - Gone Wishin' - with Claire's matte top coat

Yesterday I showed you Gone Wishin' from NOPI and today I'm showing it matte by adding Claire's matte top coat. I actually like it matte much better and Claire's matte top coat is a favorite among matte tc's at the moment. Which version do you like best?

And also, this weekend will be unusually quiet, as I mentioned we have guests this weekend so there's little time for internet in general. I'll be back to normal at Wednesday. :)

Nicole By OPI - Gone Wishin', swatch

This polish has tiny glitter in metallic blue and warm toned purple in a clear base. I first tried using it on it's own but that didn't work so well so I gave up, took a coat of a black creme and then used 3 coats to achieve this look. I wanted the glitter to be really dense but it could definitely work with just 1-2 coats too. I like the look even though it's not a favorite. In the pictures I got 1 coat of tc but I realize that I should have used 2, because the surface is still somewhat "gritty". What do you think about the glitter? And what do you think about the bottle of the NOPI's?

Bought in Walmart in Canada. Think it was 5-6 CAD.

Oh and we will have guests this weekend but I'll try schedule some posts. Hopefully I will have some time off in the evening for "me-time". :)

Purple funky french

Well, here I have some pictures I'm not that happy with. This is from 2013 and was when I was in the middle of my thesis project in university. I'd worn these nails for some time before I was able to take the pictures so sadly the pearl rhinestone show some serious wear, the color was pink but the plastic base is showing. However I like the nail art it self, purple and blue and some white glitter.
