Excuse the shocking iNOTD phone picture. Bought this thinking it was coral, but on me it reads very pink. This turned into a horrible mani because a) I mixed up the lumos base and top coat (WHY are the bottles the same?!), so this chipped within twelve hours, and b) I gave in to my mothers demands to help me apply it. She was trying to help. She'd had two glasses of wine. I had a conference* to go to the next day and no remover to tidy it up. (This, fortunately, is the hand I managed to wrest control of the brush for). Bit of a nightmare, although no fault of the polish! That aside, this is two coats (but a bit bald with two, could have done with three) and a nice juicy watermelon colour. I must try this again.
*The conference went well, although one of the biggest names in my field turned up to watch my paper, which was a terrible cut-and-shut job put together in an afternoon. After spending half an hour sitting through the other papers wondering if I could hold my breath long enough to simulate a blackout and thus miss the questions, it went fine, and Prof Awesome was really nice.
2. China Glaze Diva Bride
A manicure applied for the purposes of protecting my nails while I repainted my hall. Two coats, a little streaky but not too bad. Very sheer, and didn't cover a teabag patch I have protecting my index, so stuck a badly photoshopped picture of my cat over the top to shield your eyes. You're welcome.

Holy moly that's bright. I like it! It doesn't look as bad as you say. :) And I love your cat-patch, lol.
Cute colors!!
Your Mother did pretty good for 2 glasses of wine. Just relaxed her and she did a great job. Nice and bright pink. Your cat looks wonderful on your nails! Funny.
Illum. is REALLY bright - but right now I am digging bright, esp on toes...it's summer after all - despite my sun tea did not have enough sun or heat here at the beach today to 'cook.' I had to bring it in and heat it to finish on the stove! I don't think your polish job looks bad...least from this monitor the Lllum Pink looks fine! Sorry for you it was not coral. But I am loving the pink it is! Just a day early for Pink Wen!!!
the cat makes everything ok :D
