I got my new China Glaze Metro collection goodies and decided today was a good day to start to try them out. My eye immediately went to Trendsetter. This is a funky yellow brown color with tiny gold shimmer. I don't have anything else like it. That gets me excited.
This went on nicely. Nice formula, good opacity. The color is not going to be for everyone. It's that funky! I did inside and outside shots for you.

Don't you just love this color? Look at that shimmer?? Such awesomeness! Of course, being me, I just had to funky it up. So I grabbed another new China Glaze Westside Warrior and stamp plate M 61 and went to town. Then I added my funky french to the mix. I thought this green would go nicely with the yellow. I almost chose a brown, but that'll be for next time.

Lately, people at work have been coming up to me asking to see what I have on my nails that day. The reactions to this one were comical. One coworker said it looks like reptile skin. Another said it looks like lizard eyes. Lizard eyes? I see it now-I didn't before. Kind of makes me think this could be my first nail fail!
I'm going to let you guys decide. Is this a nail fail or not?
this color is amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteWeeell this is not really my type of color. I'm still on the fence about it though, because I did see one or two swatches where I liked the way it looked. But in the majority of swatches I haven't really cared for it. Interesting!
ReplyDeleteIt looks really cool! :)
ReplyDeleteThis has a very retro vibe about it. I am definitely going to be getting Trendsetter--I love playing with odd color like that even though they don't always love me back. :)
ReplyDeleteNot a fail at all! I can't say that color is for me, but it works on you. (I've never been much for yellows or oranges) I do want to see it with the brown..I think that would look great too!
ReplyDelete@Laura-I haven't decided whether I like this with the green accents-It's certainly not a color for everyone.
ReplyDelete@Paulina, Sandra-glad you like it
@KarenD- It is retro isn't it? Love it!
@P&C- I will definitely be doing this again but with brown!
That polish is amazing! I really dig the print you put over it!
ReplyDelete@nail-venturous-It is a cool print isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI think this is a really cool color, very different and u did a great job with the stamping choice.. I like it a lot .. not a fail at ALL!!!!
