A Red Hot Valentine's Manicure!


Happy Valentine's Day everyone! I hope all of your days are going well, I have been having the oddest morning. Do you ever have those days where it feels like everyone is looking at you as you walk down the street? When everyone you glance at is already looking in your direction? At first I thought that I might have something on my face or in my hair, but nope, no clue!

Anyways, back to business! Today I'm wearing Ciaté's Dangerous Affair on all of my nails, which as I have been running around this week, I noticed is quite a color changer. Dangerous Affair is a red cream/jelly, which is why I believe it has these peculiar properties. These images were taken in direct sunlight, and the polish shows as a bright red, but indoors and with cloudy lighting, the polish is a deep blood red. Either way, this polish is a beautiful, rich color, perfect for Valentines! This is three coats for opaque coverage. Consistency was streaky, but the second and third coats evened it out very well.


On my ring finger, I added a coat of Enchanted Rose to add a little glam to the mani. Enchanted Rose features two sizes of glitter, small, and very fine glitters. It's so shimmery and the different sizes give a really nice depth to the look. I had no problem with consistency at all, it was very smooth. 


Overall I really like both of these polishes I think that they're a fun combination! Have you guys been painting your nails for Valentine's? What colors did you choose?
