This morning, I wanted a light orange/peach polish. Of course, I didn't have a light enough orange. So, spotting an old bottle of W7 white that I've had for ages, I tried my hand at a franken - a mixture of two or more polishes. I didn't bother using an empty bottle, partly because I'm not sure if I want to wear this colour again, but more due to the fact that I couldn't find a bottle. I used two budget polishes, Essence Multi Dimension in 60 - "Watch Out" and W7 in 01 - "Snow" - which, by the way, would make a great substitute for Tip-Ex. Awful consistency.

It's a bright peachy orange, and exactly the colour I was after. For anyone who does like Chanel-like colours, this isn't a million miles away from Miami Peach in reality. I've tried to photograph it as best I can, but it doesn't show the exact shade properly. It's a bright, pastel, peachy, pinky orange. I didn't do clean-up on this hand because the camera battery was screaming at me, but here's the best two pictures from the 15-20 that I took:

ReplyDeleteIt did turn out really nice, and it's really grown on me today for spite - If I'd made a huge bottle of it I probably would've hated it :D Still, any excuse to play with polish!
