HALLOWEEN THE FIRST: THEY NEVER SAW IT COMING
Now with more teenagers trying to get to the attic!
Always the attic. Never, you know, the shed where they keep the garden shears or bags of fertilizer that could act as a blinding agent.
Anywho, today I have the first of my many Halloween manicure ideas, but this one is unique in that I hated it immediately. I hate when I picture something and it doesn't come out well because not only is it a waste of time, it's a huge waste of polish. And we can't have that!
Zoya Suri for the base and the accent nails also contain
Essie Mojito Madness, Zoya Arizona, and Essie Licorice

| Meh. Just a big steaming pile of meh. |
I put the topcoat, Out the Door, on way too quickly after painting because I was involved in watching Law & Order: SVU, and I smeared it. I wasn't crazy about the dots anyway, and that green in the marble looks like a shark fang to me.
And we all know that old internet colloquialism:
"What has been seen, cannot be unseen"
Although, speaking of unseen, these pictures do not reflect the very subtle holographic shimmer in Zoya Suri. It's the most perfect dark purple, and that hint of shimmer really puts it over the top. The first coat is almost opaque, and if you do thicker coats, you could absolutely get away with singles, though I always do two to be safe. It's the first bottle I've had to re-buy, as I am already halfway through it.
After five minutes of frowning at my hands, I took to the acetone and erased the heinousness for another try.
