4th of July Nail Art #1: Sally Hansen Color Foil Sterling Silver and Color Frenzy Red, White, & Hue

Hey lacqueristas,

This year I ran behind so late for nail art it was really frustrating.  I have been supremely busy because of school and one other obligation I am taking care of right now and so I've had little to no time to do any holiday nail art.  I was able to create two very simple looks this year.  This one was an instant no brainer with much of the design simply arising from the glitter polish I chose to incorporate.

I decided to break out my Sally Hansen Color Foils again because they are awesome!  And around the time I purchased the first six I also picked up this patriotic Color Frenzy polish - Red, White, and Hue. I knew it would be perfect for the upcoming holiday and it was beckoning me from the stand.  I think a lot of mainstream companies have gotten very wise to the whole matte glitter trend.  Sometimes it's not even about novelty it's about instant availability, and I like that I can go right to the store and pick these up without waiting or paying for shipping or worrying about a store restock.  Instant gratification ;)

So super simple eh?  It's during holidays like these that a little instant mani magic that comes from glitter polish becomes absolutely necessary.  I got a lot of complements on this one even though it was so simple.  Thanks for reading and a Happy 4th of July to those celebrating!  See you next post...
