Franken Tuesday: Mrs. Malfoy

Welcome back to Franken Tuesday, on the normally scheduled day. I am so excited for today's polish because a lot of you have been looking forward to it, and I have to say it is one of my favorites (but I say that every week so don't trust me...)

 
This is Mrs. Malfoy, a polish inspired by the amazing Narcissa Malfoy...who (in my humble opinion) never got enough book/screen time and always gets overlooked. I will go on my rant later...but now, pictures!

 
This is three coats of Mrs. Malfoy on my pinkie, ring (and thumb) and two coats of L'Oreal's The Queen's Ambition (and amazing black with silver sparkle) on my index and middle fingers. I wanted to mix textures and have a black polish as part of my mani to really create a total Narcissa look.
 
 
I totally glitter-bombed my fingers with this polish, but it layered nicely. It is made up of emerald green square glitter, black hex glitter, and silver hex glitter in a grey jelly base. Dangerous, classy, and chic like Narcissa. And of course, an homage to Slytherin fit for one of the Slytherin queens.
 
 
It is so pretty in the bottle and I love looking at it on my polish vanity.
 
 
And here is the inspiration for the polish. I mean, how flawless is she? (Helen McCrory is amazing). Now for my rant. She takes amazing care of her son, and is loyal to her husband even though he's kinda not that great (but Jason Isaacs...that is another story all together for me) and she pretty much saves Harry's life. Let us not forget.
 
 
Here is the polish in flash. I love it! It makes me feel so edgy. And like a Slytherin (although I am actually a Ravenclaw...don't hate).
 
 
 And here is the polish in action...with my wand (this is Ginny's but I am lemming for Narcissa's).
 
What do you think of this weeks' polish?
 
Love it? Enter for a chance to win your own!!
 
 
I am giving away 5 custom made polishes. 15 ish days left!
 
Happy Tuesday Pandas!

Franken Tuesday! Anna's Mistah Bates

It is Tuesday again, and that means the debut of another franken!
 
If you watch Downton Abbey, you will know that Mr. Bates is finally back! This was my manicure over the weekend to show my love for him as well as test out my studs from the Born Pretty Store!
 
 
This polish was obviously inspired by Mr. and Mrs. Bates. I named it Anna's Mistah Bates because I love the way she calls him mistaaah, and draws it out all long. Adorable.
 
 
 
 
This is three coats of Anna's Mistah Bates on bare nails. On my ring finger is two coats of Pixel Polish black with Born Pretty Store studs on top!

Anna's Mistah Bates started with clear suspension base and then lots of white and black hex glitter of the same small size. There is also black small bar glitter and a hint of gold hex glitter.
 
 
The huge amount of black glitter in the polish bled slightly (which was what I hoped for) and created this pretty grey jelly base! I love it.

 
Since Anna and Bates are always dressed in their black servants' wear, this was inspired by their monochrome look. It is fun and understated.
 
What do you think of this Tuesday's polish?
