I'm Swatchin' You - Rimmel Climax

Good Monday morning and a HUGE welcome to the new folks!  I'm so happy you are here!!!

Today's color comes from Rimmel's 60 Seconds Vinyl Shine line.  It's called Climax and it lives up to it's saucy name!  If you've been tagging along on my little adventures, you know I love purple and I LOVE this color!  It's a beautiful purple with just the slightest iridescent sheen.  I don't know if the iridescence showed up well in the pictures, but it looks great IRL.  It does dry to an almost satin finish, but a little SH Insta-Dri fixed that!

SH Double Duty and SH Insta-Dri for shine!

My Daughter's First Dotticure!

My daughter wanted me to paint her nails, which is always a huge task since she has the tiniest fingers.  She is 7 years old, but is actually quite small for her age.  So I decided to do a dotticure for her.  I used SH Double Duty as a base.  Then I did two coats of Maybelline's Prompt Petals.  Next, I added small and large dots using OPI's Alpine Snow.  I added purple dots on top of the larger white ones using Rimmel's Climax, except on her accent nail.  For the accent nails, I added a flower nail art to the larger white dot.  I then topped them off with a coat of SV.  She loved them and actually managed to keep them in good shape for a couple of days!  These pics were (obviously) taken before clean-up because she was too excited for me to take pictures of her nails using my "nail picture box."
