China Glaze Ruby Red Pumps over Icing Blackout No, it's not a super new process in which you dip your fingers into syrupy cola and they come out white and strong and long and impressive. Sorry. What it IS, however, is a lovely layering of China Glaze Ruby Red Pumps over a dark polish (in this case, Icing Blackout) where the result is a deep-vampy-red-black-jelly-glittery-glossy-fabulous-awesomeness. Here is a better look:
Yum. Yum. Yum. Like I said, I can't take credit for this one - some incredible manicurists at a salon in Skippack, Pennsylvania introduced this to me a year ago. It truly is fabulous for both your fingers and toes - I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Happy day, all!
That is really pretty! I'm correct in assuming that it's one coat of RP? I would think two would hide any trace of the black.
ReplyDeleteThat looks gorgeous. Love it.
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! Vampy, red, sparkly...perfection.
ReplyDeleteNow that's what Lubu Heels should have looked like.

ReplyDelete@KrystalBall - You are correct - one coat. I have never tried it with 2, but maybe I should!
ReplyDelete@Steffie - thanks, girl!
@Megan - agreed. You should give it a shot!
@Sandi - I completely agree. I get so disappointed with glitter/jelly polishes after I see something like this finish!
@April - Sounds yummy!
@Darlene - Definitely!
@Let Them - It was a good idea, I'm so glad that those genius manicurists showed it to me!

Looks delicious! I'm drinking a Diet Dr Pepper Cherry right now. Wonder what you'd use for a manicure to make it a bit redder. I'll have to try that one.
ReplyDeleteAwesome manicure!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to try this combo this week! It is gorgeous! I'm never creative enough to think of laying combos, so thanks for the inspiration! :D
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome!
