GOT Polish Challenge (Golden Oldie Thursday)

I have a serious problem in that I am always looking for that NEW polish fix when I have so many lovely polishes languishing in the drawer...polish I love enough to save them from purges or the donation box. And yet I don't wear them!

So when Debbie over at The Crumpet put together the GOT Polish Challenge, I was all for it! GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever.

Today is "Coral"! So I did coral polish. AND coral nail art!

GOT Polish? Golden Oldie Thursday: Yellow/Peach Toothpick Manicure

I have a serious problem in that I am always looking for that NEW polish fix when I have so many lovely polishes languishing in the drawer...polish I love enough to save them from purges or the donation box. And yet I don't wear them!

So when Debbie over at The Crumpet put together the GOT Polish Challenge, I was all for it! GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever. This Thursday is Yellow/Peach so I pulled out Dior Mango from November 2012 and Nails Inc. Sumner Place that I don't think I've ever worn.

For this mani, I used Dior Mango as a base and then when it was dry, I put a stripe of Mango down both sides of the nail with a stripe of Nails Inc. Sumner Place down the middle and drug the toothpick back and forth starting at the cuticle and continuing to the top while wet. You can see my tutorial for a toothpick mani here in Nail IT Magazine using three colors. Super quick and easy and pretty much fool-proof.

GOT Polish? Golden Oldie Thursday: Ruffle Mani

I have a serious problem in that I am always looking for that NEW polish fix when I have so many lovely polishes languishing in the drawer...polish I love enough to save them from purges or the donation box. And yet I don't wear them!

So when Debbie over at The Crumpet put together the GOT Polish Challenge, I was all for it! GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever. This Thursday is Ruffle Mani!

For this one I used Zoya Dove and Zoya Toni and for the second photo I layered an Elevation Sample holo topper over it.

Ruffles manis are NOT my favorite thing in the world. So I sort of cheated and just did an accent nail. But just because I'm a stubborn, red-headed smart alec, I did my own version of a Ruffle Mani that you may have seen on my Facebook page or on Instagram. *giggle*

Hey, if you want a certain thing, be a leeeeetle more specific next time!

For this one I used Dior Electric Blue, Milani Rapid Cherry and Elevation Polishes for the chip (crisp) in Mount Ventoux and Streetside NYC.

GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever. This Thursday is PURPLE! I love me some purple, so I pulled out two gorgeous Zoya polishes that don't get enough nail time: Perrie and Monica. And a Nails Inc. for the butterfly: Percy Street.

I used Zoya Perrie as the base and did a quick gradient on the tips with Monica and then finished off with a butterfly stamp using Nails Inc. Percy Street.

GOT Polish: Golden Oldie Thursday - Skittles Nail Art

I have a serious problem in that I am always looking for that NEW polish fix when I have so many lovely polishes languishing in the drawer...polish I love enough to save them from purges or the donation box. And yet I don't wear them!

So when Debbie over at The Crumpet put together the GOT Polish Challenge, I was all for it! GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever. This Thursday is SKITTLES! Truthfully, I've done a few Easter Skittles lately, so I decided to go a different direction this time. Embracing the challenge completely, I've used SEVEN polishes a year old or older and unused/untried.

I used Zoya Pinta on the thumb and pinky, Zoya Dove on the ring finger, Zoya Kieko on the middle finger and Dior Electric Blue on the index finger with variations of those colors for the dots and stripes.

And THEN I used Chanel Azur (I *think* that's older but it's definitely not been worn in a long time) over the index, Elevation Polish Marble Caves over the middle and ring fingers and Max Factor Fantasy Fire over the thumb and pinkie fingers.

GOT stands for Golden Oldie Thursday - we pull out a polish that's a year old or older that we haven't worn either in a year or ever. This Thursday is chevrons and I pulled out Illamasqua Ruthless. What with Throb being such red perfection I'm not sure I've ever worn Ruthless.

I love looking at all sorts of nail art - I look at most of it longingly, wishing I could do this or that. Chevrons, however, aren't my favorite. So I decided to do them a bit differently. They're still chevrons in my book, but not the straight lines we're used to seeing.

And yes, I've been singing Barry Manilow all day. It ain't pretty up in here today unless you're deaf. And yes, I know all the words because, well, I was a teenager when Copa Cabana came out. #hurtstosayaloud

But the polish is gorgeous!
