Essie Recessionista Cloud Mani

Hey guys! Sorry today's post is a little late; my internet was down when I got home from work so I took a nap! Ha!

Today's polish is brought to you by Klout! I love Klout perks!  This is the 3rd or 4th Essie perk I've received and I'm always so excited to get them! My most recent perk was Recessionista from Essie's Stylenomics collection.

Recessionista is a lovely wine creme. This is one of those Essie cremes that is so freaking perfect. Beautiful formula, no cuticle pooling or dragging... In fact, the first photo I'm showing you is only one coat of Recessionista.

Now two coats. 




Then I decided to play with some colors and picked out 3 kind of weird colors for this cloud mani.

The copper color is another Klout Perk, Penny Talk. The blue is L'Oreal Knotting Hill Blue. 



And then I added some China Glaze Fairy Dust because if you aren't sure you love a manicure, add Fairy Dust and it will be better :-) 


I ended up really liking this combination. It was something different and it was definitely eye catching! The blue was so bright and pretty! And then the Fairy Dust just magnified the awesome :-)

What do you think? Do you love the cloud mani? It's such a great, simple way to do some 'nail art', which I am dreadful at!

Talk to you soon!
