So if you read my previous posts, you would know that I just graduated high school. This fall I'll be going to the University of Washington in Seattle. I'm really happy I got in because it was my first choice school. :) In celebration and out of sheer boredom, I decided to do my nails in the UW colors, which are purple and gold.
This is New York Color Prince Street, which is a deep royal purple color with an shimmery finish. The gold is Icing Excuse Me, which is a shimmery silver gold.
And this a picture of the UW logo on a blanket:
Despite being a cheap brand, NYC Prince Street went on smoothly and it only took me two coats to get the opacity I wanted. It'd be possible to get by with one thick coat, but I always do two out of habit. The Excuse Me went on nicely as well, but left strange swirly brushstrokes when I used it for the tips. The brushstrokes weren't as noticeable when I used it as the main color. It also took two coats, but those two coats were necessary and I don't think you could pull this color off with one thick coat. It
is a gold, however, so that's completely reasonable.
Hope you all are having a great week. :)
