Nail Wear Wednesday!

I'm going to try to make Wednesday's when I highlight what today's (or my recent) nail polish is. I change it so often it's almost a different color or appearance every other day!

Today's is a big different, many bloggers do a "Pink Wednesdays" and even though I'm not a big fan of pink I figured I'd try a duo out that I had recently purchased that was in support of BCA (Breast Cancer Awareness).

~Toes~
MAC - Sly As A Fox
CND - Copper Shimmer #556





~Fingers~
CND - Pink Wishes (Colour)
CND - Pink Wishes (Pearl Effect)







Notes:
The Shimmer for the Pink Wishes shows up much better in regular outdoor lighting than it does under the camera flash. You may be able to see some settling of the light polish pink between my ridges, I did not use a ridge filler which may have contributed to that. I used 3 thin coats of the Pink Wishes and one of the shimmer, I probably should have gone with 2 coats of shimmer for a stronger effect.

The MAC polish has a very VERY slight shimmer, but not easily seen in daylight unless close up, one medium think coat of the CND copper shimmer was good enough to still keep the main color visible with some extra "oomph". I probably would not wear the brick colored MAC polish on it's own w/o a special effect top coat of some sort.

I purchased my CND at a local nail polish store so check with your local ones to find one that will carry this DUO.

The MAC was purchased at a CCO (located at outlet malls) and keep in mind the selections available from one store to another vary.
