Look #1 Summer Berry

I always like things that have clever names. (This is why I have all my OPI polishes.)  I'm not claiming that I always come up with anything clever, but the blue and purple of this made me think of berries and, well, it's summer....so Summer Berry.  You can do this with any TWO colors.  Put a coat or two of your first color, wait for it to dry, then carefully paint a French Tip at the top.  Note: This does take a lot of practice so don't think yours will be perfect if it's the first time you are trying this.

On my left hand, I used a matte top coat on my pointer and middle finger.  I usually like to do something different.....just to see if people notice.  I've been doing it since I saw the movie The Fifth Element.  Zorg's secretary has two red nails and the rest are light blue/silver.

On the right hand, I switched the polishes on my ring finger.  Make all of yours the same or give it a little switch up.  Whateve!


I used: OPI "Ogre the Top Blue", OPI for Sephora "Hell to the No".  My top coats are Nubar "Seal & Shine" and Essie's "Matte About You"


For toes: "Ogre the Top Blue", "Hello to the No" and LA Colors Color Craze "Jewel Tone"

I guess you can't see the glitter, but it's there.  I just put the blue on first (since it's lighter) then evened out the middle with the purple since it's darker.  I put two coats of the glitter polish on to finish it up!  (p.s. I didn't realize my toes are so short until I saw this picture.  Wow!)
