NAILS | #ManiMonday with OPI - By the Light of the Moon

Four weeks into 2016 and I still have #ManiMondays for you which bodes well! Though this isn't a new idea, I don't know why I never thought to try this out for myself! I used to time my nail posts with my work schedule, but now that I have figured out how to use the ringlight whenever I want, most of my photos are taken at midnight right after I finish painting. Today's mani comes from OPI's Starlight collection released for the holidays and though I have no idea what I was trying to do here (I painted these while I was sick last week), I just loved the matte silver, textured looking finish of By the Light of the Moon*. You can see that there is hex glitter as well which makes this one of the more unique polishes in my collection of 1800!


I roughly did the tips of my nails and some dots with yet another super cool shade from the OPI Starlight collection called Center of the You-niverse* to sort of give a cratered moon look to my nails. Whether it worked or not is debatable. Inspiration was fleeting that night and I have a feeling I just wanted to use both colours so badly that I was feeling experimental.


I feel really tired today, not just because it's Monday, but I think I went back to work before I really should have. I just feel exhausted! Hope you all are having a better day!

NAILS | Feeling Glittery with the OPI Starlight Collection #ManiMonday

Due to a 50 hour work week and seasonal gatherings, today's episode of Mani Monday will be a brief, but sparkly introduction to the OPI Starlight Collection. Inspired by the celestial, this collection is filled with MUCH glitter, shimmer, textured finishes and even a holo! As it is a holiday collection, there is still a classic red and wine shade, but as I will show over the next few posts, the other shades will be the ones to catch your eye!
