So, here's my belated O: OPI's Live and Let Die.
Now, while on safari, my nails suffered unspeakable breaks. I mean, my right hand is utterly mangled. You can't even speak of nubbins, there's just nothing there. I'm traumatized every time I look at them, and I'm not even sure there's enough nail to get fake extensions. I'll have to see what I do. I may get those awful paste ons from CVS just to cope with it in the meantime.
My left hand fared a tiny bit better; not much, but there's a little white on the tips at least. So, just, be warned!
I chose Ulta's Purple Haze, and OPI's Pirouette My Whistle for this challenge. I have actually never used an Ulta brand before, and I was not overly impressed. I thought it was very sheer, which some people like, but is just not my personal preference. As for Pirouette, I was obsessed with it when I first bought it, but I fear my constant travelling has caused it to gloop, and by the time I got around to taking photos, it had started to shrink.
Overall, not my best mani week, although I daresay a lot of it has to do with the fact that I'm just painfully depressed over my nail breakage. I really do like the color combo as a whole, and Pirouette makes everything look like a snow globe, which makes me happy.
That being said, here are some of my South Africa shots; hopefully they'll make up for me slacking off. =D
In case you couldn't tell from my face, I was petrified, holding that boa constrictor. I have a long-standing fear of snakes, so I was VERY proud of myself for holding one in spite of it.
