The Soft Glow of Electric Sex Gleaming in the Window

Ok, so I don't have a Leg Lamp but I kind of really wish I did. :)  Instead I have this lovely polish called Electric Sex from Darling Diva Polishes.  It's part of her 'A Christmas Story' themed holiday collection.  Electric Sex is a lovely black jelly with gold bar, hex, square and micro glitters.  It can totally be worn on its own but I've layered 1 coat of it over 1 coat of Cult Nails In a Trance - I think the golden olive tone of In a Trance brings out the gold glitter more.

No More Nubbins!! Plus Cult Nails Coveted.

What's this?  3 posts in one day...holy cow.

Hooray, I no longer have a mutant nail. :D  In my earlier post today about Seduction I mentioned I was thinking of doing Gellish nails over tips to deal with my broken nail...I couldn't stand it anymore so off to Sally I went this afternoon and I'm so, so glad I did!  Again, thanks to The Polished Mommy for the awesome tutorial that gave me the courage to try it.  Who knows, maybe one day I'll work up the courage to try doing inverted molds as well.

Over my gel nails I used a most awesome, gorgeous green jelly with glitter from Cult Nails called Coveted.  It's so, so pretty.  I suck though because in my excitement I may have dented and smudged it (the lacquer not the gel).  Oh well, I'm just glad to have normal looking nails again and to be wearing something so very pretty on them.





Cult Nails Convert Pack #4

Cult Nails currently has what they're calling 'Convert Packs' for sale.  They consist of 2 polishes meant to be layered together and Wicked Fast top coat.  I purchased #4 a few weeks ago and am blown away by the beauty of Seduction layered over Time Traveler.

These photos show 1 coat of Time Traveler, a rich dark navy cream - a perfect blue in my opinion - with 2 coats of Seduction.




On a slightly related note I am thinking of attempting to fix my broken nail with tips and gel polish as seen in a tutorial on The Polished Mommy.  Has anyone else used this or a similar technique and if so what were your results?
