Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

...And don't forget to check out @Beadshopgirl's Nail Stamping Thread for stamping inspiration! ❤️

@makeitup305 I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has a bad habit of doing polish at midnight when I really should be going to bed 😂.

[makeitup305]

@CookieGirl1 It's either on the couch on a Sunday afternoon watching TV or on the bathroom floor past midnight with terrible lighting.

[CookieGirl1]

I'm definitely on Team "on the bathroom floor just past midnight with terrible lighting", lol.

[CookieGirl1]

3 days ago, I did this: 

Photo taken in beauty lighting.

Details: 

Spoiler

Thumb & index: Nail Hoot, I Move the Stars for No One (2 coats). The scattered holo glitter is surprisingly subdued in this jet black base. I mean, beyond my camera not picking it up in this lighting; it's kinda subtle in person. Last time I wore this, I think I did a single coat and got more obvious rainbow shimmer that way. And yes, I do hear the Bowie song in my head each time I apply this polish. 

Middle & pinky: Enchanted Polish, Because (3 coats on middle, 2 coats on pinky). One of my favorite polishes ever: a multichrome + scattered holo shimmer. I usually do 3 coats to get a surreal depth of color and shimmer that my camera can’t capture. Very hypnotic. I wish I’d bought more from this brand before they closed. Also, another song that gets stuck in my head during application. 

Ring: 1 coat of ILNP, Supernova H sandwiched between 2 coats of ILNP, Ruby Sky. I haven't had Ruby Sky for long (bought it during ILNP's retired shades sale) and I'm still getting used to it. This shade's much more opaque than I expected, and sometimes the pink shimmer’s very subtle. I wanted to see if Supernova H would show through a layer of this blue jelly. Any flakes and non-pink glitter you see on that nail are Supernova H. 

I love black nail polish but didn't like the sharp contrast of I Move the Stars against my other nails. This morning, it bugged me enough to cover the black (sorry, goblin king!): 

Caught some good sunlight through a window.Showing some of Because's color shift, a bit more of Ruby Sky's pink, and Supernova H's scattered rainbow.

Index: ILNP, Supernova H (1 coat). See how a single coat pops against the black base, yet a single coat is also subdued on my ring finger beneath just 1 layer of what ILNP calls a sheer blue jelly? Man, Ruby Sky's almost the only time I don't complain about an ILNP shade being frustratingly thin. 🤣 

Thumb: Nailed It! Hawaii, You Set Me Free (1 coat). Lots of iridescent flakes in this one. I completely forgot I had this; pretty sure it's from the same HHC as Because and I Move the Stars, so that'd be sometime in fall 2020. Wearing it for the first time today. Looking it up, apparently it's a thermal?! You mean I've had a thermal flake polish for nearly 2 years without even knowing it? And you know, I'm not sure mine's a thermal: it doesn't say "thermal" on the bottom label, and the polish in-bottle doesn't noticeably react to hot vs. cold water. I'll have to test it without a base color sometime. Could be the thermal property's worn off by now, I dunno. 🤷‍♀️ Surprisingly, this is my only Nailed It shade. At some point, their new Calcifer-inspired shade will probably find its way to me, along with a couple others.
