Essie Mirror Metallics - Blue Rhapsody & Penny Talk

 Hi! Happy Monday. I am kind of excited to go to my college orientation today - going back to school after  about 6 yrs. Scary! I hope there are other big kids there.. haha. I thought about not going to one but I am far too disorganized to figure out where everything is myself. Taking 5 classes this semester so I better get in touch with that reality soon...

 Anyway, I have two of the Essie Mirror Metallics to show you. My collection was seriously lacking some chrome. I found the formula to these to be pretty tricky to say the least. Penny Talk being the more difficult of the two.

  The trick would be to NOT go over the same area twice and to let each layer dry. If you go back over it too soon it will completely drag off. (blehcrywhimper) They're quite thick so I would try to do it in one coat, but these are both 2 coats on most fingers. (The ones that looked decent enough at one I left alone!!)

 I think they're great chromes and worth the effort! Though I'll prob let the next one sit in the untrieds for a while....
