Rainbows and pink petals

Hello ladies,

Today was absolutely lovely. The flowering trees blended a magnificent perfume upon the air. On the way to the community garden, I walked along a path laden with magnolia petals. I felt like I was in a magical faery procession.

I have an untried and true manicure with one of my favorite discontinued polishes from Sally Hansen: Purple Potion. Wearing this holographic polish made every sunbeam feel like a celebration with a prismatic array of color. Because I can rarely leave a polish alone, I added floral rhinestones from Essence.

I am wearing three coats of Purple Potion. I have found the colors from the Magical collection to apply well when approached with care. The brush is small. Each nail took about four strokes for even coverage. I caution you not to go over your strokes repeatedly with the brush. This will cause color to pull, leaving bare patches. I didn't find the application to be too difficult, especially for the payoff in color.

This shade is discontinued but is still available on ebay. I feel it's worth tracking down.

Happy painting, ladies!
