Franken Feature: NailVenturous Lacquers

Peacock Gone Wild
Peacock Gone Wild is a gorgeous glitter top coat that is very versatile and can be used over many colors! 
I chose to layer it over China Glaze Fuchsia Fanatic. Here is two coats over ChG FF.


As you can see, the colors are mainly blues, teals, turquoise...but there is also a very large surprise of fuchsia square glitters and gold bars as well as hexes.



This glitter is so fun and it really seemed like a party on my nails! Amy is so creative and I feel very fortunate to have this one.
NailVenturous Lacquers can be purchased on etsy, but Amy's shop is currently on vacation until further notice.

Zoya Anja & Nail-Venturous Rustic Remains



Zoya Anja
Anja is a gorgeous deep dark plum creme nail polish. It reminds me of a dark wine color. Here is Anja applied with two coats, no topcoat.




Anja is a really pretty vampy color. It almost resembles China Glaze Crimson. It really looks black in the photo's but in real life, its a pretty deep red/plum color.

Rustic Remains
I decided to layer Rustic Remains over Zoya Anja. Rustic Remains is another exclusive franken from Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous.






Rustic Remains is a golden orange based flakie with small particles of multicolored shimmer.
Adding Rustic Remains truly was a miracle!! It looks so gorgeous over Anja and really brings out the best in this color.

Nail-Venturous Forever Taylor

Forever Taylor
Today, I have another franken by Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous. We are in a nail polish group together and I had asked if any of the frankeners could create a black glitter nail polish for me since I had never seen one before.

Forever Taylor is a gorgeous black glitter nail polish with holo glitter. It has many different sized glitter in it to create depth and a more glittery look. I really love what she did with my idea, she made it come to life!!

I really love this and I am so glad that Amy offered to create this for me, she really is a sweetheart!! 

What really is interesting about this nail polish is the unexpected larger hex glitters, it really adds to the polish making it unique and pretty! I wanted something that could be chic, yet girly and pretty, not just a plain black nail polish. She really hit it out of the park with this one!

What do you think? Would it be something that you would purchase?

Nail-Venturous Laquers: VooDoo Doll

VooDoo Doll
VooDoo Doll is another great franken that was created by the awesome Amy at I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous. I think she needs to stop before she dominates the nail polish world too much ;)

VooDoo Doll is an awesome black and white glitter nail polish. It has a very jelly-sheer black base with multiple sized and shaped black and white glitters. What probably catches your eye the most is the large white hex ones!




I really love how layered this polish looks! Its so neat and unique that I just can't stop staring at my nails today! I can totally see the direction Amy was going when naming this VooDoo Doll, you get stuck in a trance just looking at it! To me it reminds me of a flip flopped version of cookies and cream ice cream, yum!

Nail-Venturous Pinkerbell & Floam Zebra

Today I added a stamp to my mani from yesterday. I decided to do a zebra stamp using BM 223 with Sally Hansen White On just to add a little something extra. I love how simple and cute it turned out!


The wear on these Nail-Venturous lacquers are really good! I have been cleaning, folding laundry, giving my daughter a bath, taking a shower, etc...and its held up SUPER good!

Nail-Venturous Pinkerbell & Floam

Remember that totally awesome and amazing nail mail I received the other day? You know, the one with those Ah-Ma-ZING frankens from I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous? Well today I'm going to show you Pinkerbell and Floam.

Some of you might recognize the name Floam. Well it was a 90's toy craze that kids, like myself, begged their parents to buy. Amy had a little trouble trying to come up with a name for it, and luckily we have a ninja like Rhonni who thought of it!

How perfect is that name?
Pinkerbell is actually Floam's long lost sister polish. Pinkerbell has the same glitters as Floam, but with pink added.
I decided to do a mani using both!
All pictures are two coats.
 
This picture is my favorite because it brings out the blue!

close up: Pinkerbell on left, Floam on the right.

Please, feel free to click pictures and enlarge the beauty.

These were super easy to apply and dried relatively fast, a little slower than normal glitters but faster than normal cremes. After drying, I added a coat of Gelous and Seche Vite.
Are you in love yet?
:)


Don't forget to check out Amy's blog over at I'm Feeling Nail-Venturous for your chance to win Floam, Pinkerbell, & Orange You Unique?
