Barielle Blackened Blue and a frankened holo overlay

My post for today will feature another wonderful Barielle blue polish called Barielle Blackened Blue. I think it's more of a blackened teal colored polish myself. It's got wonderful sparkly teal shimmer in a dark, almost black base. Here it is in three coats. 

I then wanted to try something to make it look a little different. I always have an urge to do something to my manicures. With the lack of time I have these days, I can't do any art so I try to change the finish by doing little polish mixes and create a different look. I think it's better than just layering. So, for this mix I used Barielle Blackened Blue, Nicole by OPI Make a Comet-ment and NOPI Imagine If. 

I mixed up tiny drops of the two silvery holographic polishes with a larger drop of Blackened Blue on a piece of foil and placed one coat on my nails. 

Isn't that just lovely? They look cosmic to me. Here's another look at just Blackened Blue again.

Again, thanks for visiting! Comment if you like and come back again!

Barielle Jordana's Skinny Jeans with Sally Hansen HD Laser

Another gorgeous Barielle blue polish for you today. Before I get to the swatch of the polish, let me show you a really fun layering comboI did  with this polish. This is Sally Hansen HD Laser, a wonderful duochrome shimmer that shifts from blue to purple. It was so sparkly!! And, as with all duochromes or multichromes, it was really interesting on cloudy days and other lower light situations. 

This is what Sally Hansen Laser was layered over, Barielle Jordana's Skinny Jeans. This was two easy coats of this polish. It did not give me any trouble at all and it did not stain with removal. 

Barielle Slate of Affairs

I should have showed you this swatch with the last post. This is Barielle Slate of Affairs, a very calm blue tinged with grey with a subtle blue shimmer in it. This is two coats.
