These Aren't the Droids You're Looking For - A Twinsie Post with Fixin to Faff!


How epic is that image! Thanks to Ali over at Fixin to Faff for the image! And the plate!

Today is officially Star Wars day! May the 4th be with you! (Get it? Oh I hope you do!). Ali and I decided to do a twinsie post both using our MoYou Sci-fi 02 plate. You so totally need to check hers out! Um, it's a-mazing! I'm not even worthy to twinsie with her!


So here is my twin mani! We decided to use the ever-so famous line: "These aren't the droids you are looking for" as our prompt. I think it's really funny that our manis are very similar! (in fact we used some of the same polishes!)


I started out with OPI Glitter Off as my base. I then used two coats of OPI My Vampire is Buff to give the background a desert/Tatooine-like feel. (Funny, we both did that!) I then used a q-tip and dabbed Milani White on The Spot to each nail tip. I then used some of my Rainbow Polish Star Set Polishes: Artoo (Blue one) and See 3P Ohhh (Gold one). I stamped using Barry M Foil Effects in Silver. Top coated it with HK Girl Top Coat and then Essie Matte About You.

I had really great ideas for this, but I ran out of time. I wish I had used a darker background (or thought to make decals like Ali!). But it kind of goes along with my title: "These aren't the droids you are looking for" they are a bit faded from your image. You can't really see them. The force is strong with me and I am able to reach through the internet and alter your mind! :)


Have to show you my thumb! Isn't he cute! I love this plate a ton! It's so unique and amazing!


Here is what the mani looked like before I added the matte top coat. 

Which did you like better? Shiny or matte?

Don't forget to go and check out Ali's post over at Fixin to Faff! And May the 4th be with you!

Indie Month Day 12 and The Digit-al Dozen Does Geek - Star Wars


Day two of The Digit-al Dozen Does Geek! (also still continuing my Indie Month!) Today is Star Wars! Woot! Had to do these because in my house Star Wars is pretty dang popular.

I started out with two coats of Diamond Cosmetics Concrete Jungle. I then applied three coats of Rainbow Polish Sky Walker on my index finger. These is from Rainbow Polish's Star Set 2. And it is lovely! No fishing for glitter either!

Here is what Rainbow Polish says about Sky Walker:
This Luke Skywalker inspired polish named Sky Walker starts with a slightly milky blue base containing small blue glitters, blue"lightsaber" glitter bars, white square glitters and small blue dust glitter.

Little fact that Lukes lightsaber was changed from blue to green after he lost it and built his own. In the duel with Darth Vader it is blue. Pair with Dark Side and your fingers can duel :-)
And that is exactly what I did! They are dueling with two lightsabers! With light sparks flying off. I used Essence Let's Get Lost for Luke's lightsaber and Zoya Sooki for Darth Vader's. With Wet N Wild Black Creme for the handle and Catrice King of Greens and Zoya Sooki for the buttons. 

On my pinkie is three coats of Rainbow Polish Dark Side. This is from Star Set 1.

This Darth Vader inspired polish named Dark Side is a black jelly transparent base packed with various sizes of dark side black hex and square glitters and red "lightsaber" glitter bars and small holographic glitters.
 I love this both these sets of polishes and if you are a Star Wars fan I recommend you getting them! They are fabulous!


Thought I would show you Diamond Cosmetics Concrete Jungle (two coats). Super pretty and great application!
