Rue's Nails of Fall and Winter

This is the looks that I painted my nails. I painted them more, and I thought I had more pictures, but I cannot find them. Also for some odd reason my hands were drier than they have ever been this past Winter, so I didn't take pictures because my hands looked horrible. 

Look 1: Black Platinum 

This is Black Platinum from Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure. I don't remember exactly how many coats it took to get this color,  but I do remember it being 4 to 5 coats. It's a sheer polish. I would recommend putting a black base coat, and you wouldn't have to use as many coats. When I used the black base coat. I did two of the black, and use this as a top coat. I got the same effect. I loved this polish. I loved the color. Plus it was on sale at Walgreens when I got it. I think that I got it for less than 2 dollars. 

Look 2: Lush Black Tie 

I love flaky nail polish on dark nails. I especially love this Luxe and Lush from China Glaze. (It was from the Hunger Games Collection unsure you can get it.) I wish that I had gotten the full size. This looked started with Confetti Black Tie (2 coats). I then topped it with one coat of the Luxe and Lush. I loved this. One thing   about the flaky nail polish is it can be difficult to work with sometimes, but it's like a chunky glitter. 

I topped both of these looks off with my Sally Hansen Growth Max Plus Top Coat. See my manicure routine for how I got both these manicures. ( I am planning on doing an updated one soon)

Personal Points 

• Switching to working 3rd on the weekends at work. Not sure exactly when thought. 
• Still unpacking... It's been almost two months. 
• Currently NO CAR!
• New phone, but the camera on it is worse than my old one, but I am not taking pictures with it. I am using my old Droid now, and it's better than my camera and phone.  The next couple of posts will have pics from the old phone,but you will be able to tell when I start using pics from the Droid. 
• Oh, I have better lighting. Better pics as well...
