My birthday nails are almost always some kind of neon. It is way brighter in person than it shows in my photos. As usual, blogs represent olden Internet haha. But I just do not love writing full reviews as Instagram captions and Facebook captions. I also do not love long swatch videos that take 15 minutes to listen to. Blogs will always be my choice! I am glad you are here to read it!
Here are the colors I used. I wanted some soft neon pastels and I love how this color combo came out!
- Base: Stella Chroma Super Food for Nails
- Flake #1: KBShimmer Ice and Easy
- Flake #2: KBShimmer Raking It In
- Sheer: Morgan Taylor Barely Buff, on top of the flakes for a "jelly sandwich" look
- Yellow: KBShimmer Rum Me the Right Way
- Pink: China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy
- Light green: Jessica Cosmetics Mint Blossom
- Dark green: KBShimmer Shore Thing
- Orange: KBShimmer Leggo My Mango
Yes, my nails might be a little messy because I took these pictures five days after doing my nails haha. I love the subtle bits of the flakes and the soft white dots. These flake top coats from KBShimmer are some of my favorites and I use them all the time! I also loved that I used Flip Flop Fantasy which is so old! I feel like using old nail polish colors brings me so much joy. And the formula was still wonderful!
I originally took indoor pictures but last minute took pics in the sun when it came out but I wanted to share this with you, since these are not as chipped because I took pictures right away, shocker! LOL. You can see how much brighter the colors look. I love that the two greens are not even neon, but still work with this look.
So there you have it. Cheers to 12 years! Thank you for sticking around! And I have a lot of art to share this month since I have been inspired and I love when that happens!

Congrats on 12 years. I have enjoyed everyone of your posts. I really love this manicure and the colors you used. I love rediscovering polishes you haven't worn in a while. I used a girly bits that I believe was 7 years old and it applied like butter. Thanks for all your hard work and inspiring me to try new manis. Cheers to you 💜
ReplyDeleteThank you and sorry for my delay as blogger and Apple seem to not be compatible and I could not comment as me. I agree--why collect polish and then only use new ones?! I love to incorporate some old ones and I love that many are still in excellent condition. Thanks for the anniversary wishes!
DeleteHappy Blogiversary again. Funny story.....I thought in case you ask which Girly Bits did I use I thought I had better check how old it was. When I put it on I didn't even check the name. It's 9 years old and it's the very beautiful Stardust. I completely forgot Pam created it for you. I love the neon glitters in it. What a funny coincidence . Thanks again for sharing all your lovely manicures. Maybe you could get Pam to create a whole collection for you.

Stoppp!! That is so amazing! I have not worn that one in a while and I think it is time I pull it out. I have one that I use and one I have in a cabinet haha. Along with my KBShimmer collab polish. I don't think Girly Bits is making polishes anymore, but I do love the one I made with her!
DeleteThe people that took over the sale of her polish have 2 new ones for pre order that ends the 24th. So she's at least made a couple lol.
