Hare Bisbee

Tonight's post is going to be slightly lacking in pictures.  I've been in Chicago since Friday, and this is the first time I was close enough to my PC to do a post.

I decided to wear Hare Bisbee for my trip. I have had this polish for awhile now, and I finally got to use it. It's a teal color. I originally wanted to call this polish turquoise, but it is more green than it is blue. In some lights it leans more green and other darker lighting it leans more bluish green. I count this as a blue for April Autism Awareness month here on the blog. I know I'm stretching it with this color, but my other April polishes will be more true blue for future posts :)

One pictures is all I got :) YUP, just one lol. Not my usual barrage of pictures. This polish only really needs just one picture. It is gorgeous in a bottle.

I get a sea, mermaid scales feel from this polish - I LOVE IT. The gold glitters are really unique as well. The color in this picture is pretty accurate for the lighting I was in.

Hope you guys like this, and I will be back soon with some of my haul stuff from Chicago!

Autism Awareness ...

Purchased by Me
 
April is Autism Awareness Month, so I will be doing a manicure for Autism Awareness for today and blue manicures for the remainder of April. 

For a long time, many people didn't even know what Autism was, so awareness is the first step. I myself do not have anyone in my family that has Autism, but I have friends that have Autistic children, so I wanted to join in to help spread awareness.


I followed this video tutorial on Youtube that can be found HERE. I have to say I enjoyed doing these so much. They are time consuming, but so worth it in the end. I'll be wearing these to work tomorrow as well.



Colors I used:

China Glaze - Happy Go Lucky (Yellow)
Sation - Board Girl Blue (Dark Blue)
Sation - Hot 4 Teacher (Red) 
Sation - Jock Juggler (Light Blue) 



I used regular Scotch tape for making my squares, and a dotting tool to make the circles.


My regular readers also know how obsessed I am with Matte Top Coat, so of course I used that to finish things off. 


Hope you like these :) How many of you will be joining in the Blue Manicures for April. Love to hear your comments :)
