Try It On Tuesday: Finger Paints - It Baroque

It's that time of the week again, Try It On Tuesday! Lately I've been getting into nudes and fall colors and today's polish is just that. This here is It Baroque by Finger Paints; I picked it up at Sally Beauty Supply a couple of weeks ago during the sale they were having on their clearance items so it was very affordable.

It Baroque is a beautiful milk chocolate creme polish that applies slightly darker than it appears in the bottle. Shown below is two very thin coats that applies smoothly and evens itself out. It is capable of being opaque in one coat if applied properly.




Have you participated in Try It On Tuesday yet?! If you haven't, I'd strongly encourage it so I can see some more beautiful manicures & it is also a great way to get through some of your unused polishes!

Peace & Love,

Try It On Tuesday: Orly's Fowl Play & Mysterious Curse & Milani Hot Pink

Time for my second ever Try It On Tuesday! (Yes I know, I've been slacking hardcore). As mentioned on my Facebook, I am trying to let September be dedicated to using my MANY unused polishes and I happily used  2 unused polishes for this manicure. This beautiful combo was discovered by accident but I'm so glad I did it. After basecoat, I started off with one coat of Orly's Mysterious Curse which is a purple to blue duochrome from the Dark Shadows collection (also a dupe for Orly's Royal Velvet). I then added 1 coat of Fowl Play which is... well it's so amazing I can't even describe it! To kick this manicure up another notch I added 1 coat of Milani's Hot Pink which is the teeny tiny orange glitter you will see. I noticed that when it was really sunny outside, it was still possible to see the duochrome action at work which was really cool! Enough chit chattin', to the pictures!

A few hours later I got bored and decided to put a matte topcoat over it, and let me just say it really makes the flakies in Fowl Play pop!



Do you have any unused polishes you're just itching to use? Did you participate in TIOT? Let me know!

Peace & Love,
