Pumpkin French Manicure with China Glaze and Orly

Darkened, almost caramelized orange of the China Glaze Desert Sun (Safari collection) looks stunning when paired with its opposite, the dark plum with dense gold shimmer. I chose to pair it with Orly Rock the World, which was issued in the Hollyday Collection some time ago.

I made these pics on my iphone, and corrected the color balance a bit to make them more true to color.

CG Desert Sun is creamy and semi-thick, very good opacity there. I used two coats for dense and glossy finish. And drew a french tip with the Orly Rock the World, which is also true 2 coater, very nice color indeed. I think what separates it from the other shimmery plums is the VERY dense, very prominent gold shimmer. I personally LOVE this combo! What about you?:)


This is that time of the year, oh yeah! Leaves changing, cold air is coming, cozy scarves and stylish jackets are being pulled out of the closet..

We are all excited and a bit sentimental about the end of this year, the many things that could have happened, some did and some did not. One of my absolute favorite things is to take walks with a travel mug full of hot latte or tea. Even though drinking hot beverages is suppositely bad for the throat and lips, I love the feeling of it. I love the vapor coming out of my mouth and the hot yummy drink warming up my throat:)
I hope you have a chance to get out and enjoy the fall

Kisses, Maria "TwosRuse".
