Twinsie Tuesday: What's Your Sign?

press sample

Twinsie Tuesday and Day 3 of Black and White Week.  Instead of posting twice today, I thought I'd try to kill two birds with one stone.

Today's TT is pretty cool: What's Your Sign?  As June baby, I am a proud and crazy Gemini.  While I'm not an adherent by any means to astrology, I like that my star sign is that of twins, a duality of personalities...or as my family puts it, crazy.

To represent the opposing twin nature, I chose to layer Maybelline Clearly Spotted over my new favorite nude creme, Sally Hansen Stocking Nude from the Rodarte designer collaboration collection.  When I saw Iris from Polish Amor create a similar mani on Instagram, I knew I had to try my own version (the colors are identical, we just used different polishes to achieve the same effect).  I thought the black and white matte glitter look over the nude base would be a good, albeit abstract, representation of the yin and yang in the Gemini nature.

Let me just say that I looooved this mani and was so sad to have to take it off at the end of two days.  Iris really came up with a clever layering combo that I'm so happy I was able to recreate.
