Essie Mesmerize

Another mini that came in the set. Mesmerize is a nice blue creme, I'm wearing 2 coats with a coat of SV. It is not quite so dark blue in person.

I decided to try using thread to do some nail art. I was picturing in my mind more clean lines than this but I ended up liking the result. I just tied regular old sewing thread on my index finger and dabbed some China Glaze Millennium on it and pulled it taut and just sort of put it across my nails in different directions. It's really nothing exciting, you could do this with just the nail polish brush lol. I might try something else to make better lines next time, maybe wax dental floss.

Have a great weekend!

  2. Amazing color, I'm a sucker for blue, own many like this already, but I still want it, lol.

    Did you shorten your nails? They look good on any length it seems! :-O

  8. I have a royal blue polish that I adore, but it's not quite as nice as this. The nail art looks amazing, I love that you only did it on one nail :)

  9. Totally love this blue! I've just realised I have quite a few untried blue nail polish. But none of them like this one! It's such an interesting idea to use thread to create nail art. I'm terrible at drawing straight lines. Maybe I can use dental floss like you metioned next time :)

    Anon - Thanks! :D

    Michéle - Thanks, I really like this shade! I need to expand my blues and greens lol. I did file them down a bit, you have quite the eye! I wish I could go really really short but then they'd bleed aah. I kept stabbing my eyelids trying to take out my contacts!

  14. Mesmerize is another one that looks gorgeous on you. You just have beautiful hands and nails. Very elegant looking. My Aunt had hands shaped like yours. Pretty tapered long fingers. I took after my Mom instead of her sister. My hands aren't as tiny as my Mom's, she was 4'11". I'm 5'4" with longer fingers. But not those elegant hands. Damn!
