ABC Challenge: K is for Keep up the Flame

I'm going to have to seriously go over my entire stash because this is the second week in a row I've been struck with the realization I don't have a fitting letter for the challenge. Lucky me, CVS has a pretty broad selection of brands to choose from, and I picked up Maybelline's "Keep up the Flame", and Nicole by OPI's "Kissed at Midnight" from the Selena Gomez collection.



I had a hard time making the flash work with the gold against the red. It kept turning orange. Once I went outside the issue resolved pretty quickly. 




For being a last minute find, I'm pretty excited about how it turned out. I love Maybelline's color show polishes as base colors. They're inexpensive, they dry quickly, and application is smooth. I'm not the biggest fan of Nicole by OPI in general; for being a branch of OPI, the formula is NOT impressive, and it's still 8 dollars a bottle. Kissed at Midnight, however, was great. I was really happy with the application and the amount of glitter that came out with one coat. It applies evenly and dries super fast. 

I was also kind of stoke that my manicure matches my new lip-liner pencil. I'm easily amused.
