Here we are at Day 4 of Red Week.
You know...red is my least favorite polish color. I love red, I'm just not into red nails so much. Kinda like red lipstick, I think it's got it's place in the world and even on me, but just very rarely!
With that said, this week has been a struggle for me finding the few reds I have and making them into something I can tolerate.
I have been seeing a lot of cool needle drag/marble designs lately and wanted to give it a whirl.
I don't think this is great, but I think it's decent, in that it comes across how I intended!
Hopefully!
Here we goooooo!

| Seeing these photos reminds me of another reason I dislike red, it is SO HARD to cleanup. It leaves a ton of residue and color behind! |

Wow this is like the exact opposite of me. I love red! It's not my favorite color but it's up there. What I can't stand is red lipstick. No matter what tone or color I find I look like a tramp. Yup I said it a tramp and let me tell you it's not a good look on me ;) Can you shoot me a little message with your favorite colors? I think they are teals, greys? but I'm not sure...btw I love the flames!
ReplyDeleteyeah - i love red lipstick, but not on me! it doesnt look bad, it just makes me feel sooo self conscious and like i constantly need to keep an eye on it!
