POTW (Pedi of the week) *Warning Ugly Toe Pic*

I usually do my own pedicures, but I decided to treat myself to a professional pedicure this past week and boy was it heaven!  The foot soak and back massage was amazing and I topped it off with an iced coffee.  :-)

Here is how it turned out:

Sorry for the ugly toe pic!

Used:  OPI "Can You Dig It?" and a silver and green nail striper

NOTD - glitter french tip

A few days ago I had to go to a job orientation, so I wanted a simple mani for the day.  I decided to go with OPI's new "In The Spot-Light Pink" with a coat of "I Juggle... Men."  Since I have acrylics and I knew the polish would be shear I used OPI's acrylic base coat, which is a white toned base coat.

This is one coat base coat, one coat "In The Spot-Light Pink" with one coat of "I Juggle... Men."  

I liked the pink color, but wish it was a touch more opaque.  I love the shimmer in "I Juggle... Men."  Next time I want to use a few more layers so it is more noticeable.  It was cloudy out, so I wasn't able to capture the shimmer like I hoped. :(

I wasn't completely impressed with this, simply because it was a touch boring.  So, I decided to add a glitter French tip.  I'm not a huge glitter polish fan, but am trying to branch out.  I used Sally Hansen's Hard As Nails Extreme Wear in "Rockstar Pink."

I liked this polish and am glad I only decided to do it as a tip.  It's a bit flashy for me, but I could possibly wear it as a thin glitter coat on top of a darker polish.  

I like the way it came out! :)

What I used (plus French manicure tip guides):

What do you guys think?

(all the above photos were taken with flash, due to it being cloudy out all day)
