NOTD: Catrice Marilyn & Me + Layla Mercury Twilight + BM-223

Pin It Now!
On to the nail stuff!


Who would like to see my birthday mani? I know it's been a few days but since I posted My Birthday Giveaway on my actual birthday, so you didn't get to see it. This mani is so out of character for me, but I put it on because my friend in Poland likes red but when I put it on, it was super bright, which meant I added something to it.
 I used the unlikely combination of Catrice Marilyn & Me, which is a bright red jelly with red glitter in it and Layla Mercury Twilight. I wanted to try the Layla to stamp with since I've had so much trouble with application of the Layla lacquers without a proper base like Nfu-Oh's Aqua Base, and it worked!
 In the close up you can really see the red glitter and I actually like the silver holo over a bright red. I plate I used was Bundle Monster BM-223.


 I did not use a top coat to make sure the holo didn't dull, but I also didn't have full sun to show you how holo this one looks. I'm glad I tried this because I think it's a mani I would actually wear again.

Till next time!

  6. I think I couldn't wear such a red, I don't like the way reds fit my hands..
    But honestly this is a lovely result! I should consider to try a stamp with Layla Holos. Maybe I can try with the brand new holos by Pupa Milano. They're great as the Layla are.
