The gorgeous Sarah over at Little Miss Sparkles (http://littlemisssparkles3.blogspot.com/) asked me to swatch my Maybelline Flakies polish that I blogged about yesterday =) So hun this is for you....and everyone else reading too lol =P Enjoy!
I decided to use different base colours to make the most of the flakies and also show how they could look over different polishes. I used Models Own Purple Pearl, Zoya Kristi, Colour Club Where's the Soiree? and Accessorize Electric Blue. And that at the end is the flakie called Sonic Sunset.
Sorry about the messy painting lol I had to run downstairs to start cooking so was doing this as quickly as possible! Anyways up next are these nails plus the gorge flakies =) Btw I'd enlarge the pics to let the flakies properly show off =P
I was slowly lifting my hands upwards so that you can see the gradual colour change effect the flakies make. At the top they'r mostly orange, next they become a mixture of orange and green and then lastly they'r all green =)
Side view =)
So what do you think of this polish? Like flakies?
♥♥♥
Oh I really like it over the ModelsOwn polish. Very pretty :)
@Melinda Stella: Awe thank you =) I was really curious to see what the orange flakies would look like over purple... and i'm glad it turned out good =) I'm glad you like it!

@colourfulbottle: Thanks! I heard about them not too long ago and i'v looked at drug stores where I live (in the UK) and I didnt find any but maybe the US has them? Let me know if you manage to get your hands on it =)

I am looking for a flaky for ages and cannot find one :). About your question. I only have 3 palettes from sleek the sunset, storm and paraguaya. But my favourite is the storm because you can use it to do natural or smokey looks.:)By the way do you know barry m is coming out with another 3 crackle colour blue, pink and white.
This is friggin' GORGEOUS, thank you for the swatches. I really like it over the purple ^_^

@Beauty Shades: Aw bless yea I was searching all over the place to get my hands on a flakie! Oh btw I bought the Nubar one its called 2010 which is a flakie and its from ebay and I got it for a really decent price =) I havn't shown u guys it yet cos its at my friends house but as soon as i get it i'l def show you all. If you want to buy it here's the link to the seller I bought it from: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nubar-Polish-Nubar-2010-G188-1-2-oz-15-mL-/120710770960?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c1aec3110#ht_777wt_1139 Its from America but arrived quite fast so I recommend this seller =)
And thanks for answering my question! I also really love natural smokey looks so I guess if I do ever buy a palette i'l def go for the storm =) And i'm pretty sure I remember telling you about the new barry m's! Lol I think I answered one of your comments over here on my blog and told you! But yea I can't wait to get my hands on them!! =)

@Little Miss Sparkles: Really honestly it was no effort at all =) I had fun actually so thanks for recommending me to do this!! And thank you for loving everything I do to them lol! =)
I'v been looking for this polish in the shops and the internet but failed lol but if you read the reply I commented to Beauty Shades I'v shown a link to ebay from where I bought an amazing fakie polish by the brand Nubar and it wasn't even expensive =) So i'd really recommend that you go for this one as its a true flakie and the brand is mega cool lol!
And thank you i'm really really happy that you liked the swatches =)
Wow i'm in such a talkative (or should I say typeative) mood today lol! =P
