Arrowhead

Hey everyone! Today's post features my twist on the chevron pattern. I decided to go with a teal/red combination because it reminded me of one of my favorite Air Max 1 colorways (check it out here).

For this mani, I used Sweet Color 34 as my base polish (which I received to review from BornPrettyStore). I was quite impressed with the formula because it had excellent coverage. It was fully opaque in one coat, even though I used two for good measure.











Sweet Color 34 + Foxtrot by MakeupWithdrawal

If you're wondering what glitter I'm using, it's Foxtrot by MakeupWithdrawal! It's a franken that Mimi kindly sent to me sometime ago. When I first received it, I thought it looked very patriotic and I wasn't sure how to use it. However, I totally love how it works in this color combo and I will definitely be wearing it again! Unfortunately, Mimi currently doesn't sell her frankens, but I do know that she occasionally swaps them if any of you are interested (:
