Fuse Nail Polish

Recently, I recieved a couple polishes of Fuse nail polish to swatch and review. Carolyn and Nefertiti, the two sides of Fuse, sent me 'Zombie Snot' and 'Red Delicious'. Fuse Nail Polish is a 3-free indie brand.

ZOMBIE SNOT
This clear base polish is LOADED with matte black circle glitters, with a dash of hex glitters in bright green and lime green. I layered just ONE coat of 'Zombie Snot' over Wet n Wild 'Caribbean Frost'. The teal color contrasted with the neon green hexes and really brought them out! Application was very smooth and easy. I did have to fish for the green glitters at first, but after a quick bottle shake, the glitters were re-distributed and easy to catch.




RED DELICIOUS
'Red Delicious' has a slightly tinted red base packed with gold, magenta, and red hex glitters. This polish could twist any mani! I think this polish has the possibility to look great as a topper to a large spectrum of different colors. To show this, I added a coat of 'Red Delicious' over black, as well as a coat over China Glaze 'Merry Berry'. When layered over black, it gives off a sense of attitude and power! I absolutely love it over black!

Iron Man 3

So it is no secret that I absolutely love superheroes! In honor of Iron Man 3, I decided to do Iron Man nails.

I got this idea from www.polishbabble.blogspot.com who did this mani when Iron man 2 came out.

For the ring finger I painted the Iron Man Mask using Color Club 'Red-ical Gypsy' and Essie 'Good As Gold'. For the middle finger and pinky I used Zoya 'Storm' as the background as Essie 'As Good As Gold' for the lettering. My favorite parts of my mani were my ring finger and thumb. This was the first time I tried to draw something so small with so much detail!

I was extremely happy with how they came out! It saddened me when I had to take them off today. But, you can expect that I will be doing more superhero nailart soon! If you have any suggestions for superheroes (or any suggestions at all) just comment below(:

Pink Ombré

I wanted to go simple today, so instead of nail art (which I have seriously been lacking lately) I did a pink ombre (gradient? Whatever it's called).

I used Color Club 'Sugar Sheer' as the base as well as the lightest color. On top of 'Sugar Sheer' I sponged on Color Club 'Flamingo' and 'Warhol'.

I am seriously in love with these! I usually don't paint my nails pink because I feel like it's too girly for me, but I would most likely do these on myself again!
