In honor of Charlie Sheen's "Radness"

I'm finding myself so entertained by Charlie that I did a manicure in his honor. I will also start incorporating "radical" in my conversations.
You should be thinking mid-1980's. Neon colors, jelly bracelets and side-ponytails.

L.A. Colors, no-name bright pink with Konad, plate m57, black zebra stripes

This is my funky troll hand.

So Eighties!

Awesome 99-cent color

It's hard to pass-up a 99-cent bottle of nail polish when the color is this cool.
This is Wet n Wild "Wild Card/Invitation"
Unfortunately this pic doesn't capture the color that well.

So I did my usual meticulous application, and what do you  know? BUBBLES. Bubbles everywhere. Now, I was quite careful not to shake it too much during application. In fact, I shook it once before hand, and let it sit for awhile to let the bubbles rise to the surface.
So, how did I get all these bubbles?
Maybe you "get what you pay for." So, I decided to do some layering for fun since I can't wear a mani with so  many flaws. This is what I came up with:


 This is a layer of Finger Paints "Hue Left Me A Message?"
I can't wait to take a picture of it in the sun - so sparkly!
Thanks for reading!

dots

I wanted to do a very feminine color with a black accent. This is two coats of OPI Sweet Heart with WnW Ebony Hates Chris dots. At first I thought I would do random dots but didn't like that and switched to a line of dots. I like!
flash on - too bright! But you can see where I started the random dots.

Looks better. This is such a sweet, very pale pink. Love it!

Oh, also during this adventure, I spilled acetone on the kitchen table. Whoops.
