First off, I did this manicure a few days early. My family is taking a well deserved vacation in early May and I needed to get some of them done early since I won't be changing them while we're gone. These got done kind of quickly so I have fuzz on my nails from removing the previous manicure and not taking the time to really fix them up again before painting again. I was being lazy.
So what's cooler than a pale blue?
Pale blue with stamping and glitter!
Base is Sea Spray by China Glaze - another clearance score a couple months ago.
I used Konad's special stamping polish in White and BM-212 for the design. Not my neatest stamp job, but it was okay.
Sea Spray
Application: Smooth, evened out with 2 coats
Coverage: 2 Coats for full opacity
Description: Pale blue creme with pearly shimmer
Drying time: Slower than average. It's an older polish though so that may have a lot to do with it.
I applied a coat of Snow Caps by China Glaze to give it an icy feel. Snow Caps is a thin glitter polish with a very thin white base. The glitter is an iridescent yellowish gold.
Application: Smooth even on first coat
Coverage: thin - great for a top coat
Drying time - average for a glitter
I finished the manicure off with a coat of SV for glossy finish and speed drying time.

I had Snow Caps once... Looking at this mani I think I need it again!
