31 Day Challenge, Day 21: Inspired by a Color

Hello! I'm so excited that we are onto the final third of the challenge: the "inspired by" section!

Today's theme is "inspired by a color", which was very convenient for me since yesterday I did a gradient! Made things extra convenient :)

What I used:
OPI If You Moust You Moust
OPI Dim Sum Plum
OPI Casino Royale

OPI If You Moust You Moust OPI Dim Sum Plum OPI Casino Royale
OPI If You Moust You Moust
OPI Dim Sum Plum
OPI Casino Royale

OPI If You Moust You Moust OPI Dim Sum Plum OPI Casino Royale
OPI If You Moust You Moust
OPI Dim Sum Plum
OPI Casino Royale
As you can see, I chose pink/berry as my color! Casino Royale and Dim Sum Plum are more on the berry side, but when layered over If You Moust You Moust, they look more pink! I still really like gradients, they don't take a lot of time or effort, but look awesome! No complaints about any of these formulas either :)


My 12 year old cousin recently went to a Justin Bieber concert (she's a huge fan) and she requested that I feature her manicure on my blog. As promised, here are Phoebe's creative nails!

She told me she used a picture cut-out, placed it on her ring finger and topped it off with clear coat. 
I think the purple with the hearts is very cute :)


What do you think of these manis?

  1. Wow! Love the gradients! OPI Casino Royale seems to give quite a nice effect like burnt edges to the gradient! - is it somewhat jelly-ish? or just slightly sheer?

    Hello Phoebe! You're one talented girl! Hope you've enjoyed the concert! At the age of 12, I don't think I would have thought of sticking on paper cut outs! Great job! :D Love the hearts on the pinky!

    1. Thank you! It's just a little on the sheer side for the first coat. It's fully opaque after 2!
