NAILS | Rainbow Honey "I Miss You" Swatch #CBBxManiMonday

Purchased by me

Not to be overly dramatic, but I am reminded of why it is always good to have extra little backup posts as after enjoying my nails at this VERY long length, I broke the middle nail the other day right down to the tip of my finger and had to chop ALL of them down. I have broken nails before, but I was more sad than usual this time as I have had these long nails for a few months now and love the way the elongate my hand. They are ridiculously hard to work with though and I am surprised they have lasted as long as they have! I will have "real" nails next week, but right now, I leave you with this gorgeous duo of polishes from now defunct indie nail polish company Rainbow Honey.

 

I picked up both of these shades in these long mini bottles (why don't more brands do polishes in this type of bottle for minis?) shortly before the brand disappeared almost 10 years ago. The base shade is a bright cream purple called "Viola" topped with a pastel glitter in fun shapes like butterflies and flowers called "I Miss You". This month's #CBBxManiMonday theme is "Florals" and so it was pure luck that I happened to have this manicure in my saved photos! I had another manicure planned for today, but it will have to wait until my nails grow back!

Happy Monday everyone and be sure to check out Renee and Trysh's blogs for their manicures this week!
