Guest Post : Jen from ThePolishAholic.com beddazles us with a brilliant layering

I absolutely love Jen's blog and I must confess that I was over the moon when she agreed to write a guest post for me! I'm such a fan of her blog :D



Hey guys! I am so excited to do this guest post for Sam, I loooooove Fashion Polish...I might have even fangirled a little when Sam asked me if I wanted to do a post!

Whenever I do a guest post I always have horrible anxiety about what to do, do I layer or maybe attempt Konad or something crazy like water marbling. I decided to go with layering...lets face it I suck at the other 2, it would not have been a pretty guest post had I gone with those options!

Recently I changed up my set up of how I have my polishes so all my untried ones are staring at me while I do my nails. I had a few sitting in there that I've been dying to use so I decided that I should just wear them all at once! I really love layering even though it's not something I show on my own blog a lot. Usually I wear stuff like this during the week when I'm not swatching polishes to review them.

For this mani I started off with a base of OPI Black Onyx, to that I added a coat of Milani Jewel FX in Lavender and a coat of Nubar White Polka Dots. Because I clearly cannot leave well enough alone I also added a coat of BeYu 209 on top of that, I was hoping the pretty color shift would show up but it didn't :( Instead it turned my White Polka Dots pink!! That was a nice surprise! This mani was a looker, I got asked by so many people what it was and how I did it!
The first 2 photos below are in the shade and the last one is in the sun, check out that pretty shimmer from the BeYu in the sun...I love it!





Hope you guys like this mani as much as I did, thank you to Sam for letting me guest post <333
