Flakies!!! Who doesn't love Flakies!!!

Catrice's LE Million Styles Effect Topcoat C04 'Shake it! Flake It!' 


This will be a pic-heavy post, but look at the beauty of these Flakies!!!!
They deserve a lot of pictures to show you their gorgeousness.

The Flakies I've used for this design are in Catrice's LE Million Styles Effect Topcoat C04 'Shake it! Flake It!' 
I don't think you can buy them anymore, so i'm sorry if I made you want them.....

To make the gold-red-green shine pop, the basecolor I've used is Kleancolor 'Dark Red' a deep red that is opaque in 2 coats and is so dark, it almost look black.

Because Flakies also look very good when they are mattefied, I've used Essie "Matte About You' as a matte topcoat. 
As you can see, the Flakies are still gorgeous, but the colors are different. Not better or worse, just different. And i couldn't find the green effect when mattefied. 

But look at all that Flakie-goodness!!!

Mattefied with Essie "Matte about You'


This design was for a nailchallenge on Instagram, so I wanted to spice this mani up with a leave-stamping, because the Flakies remind me of a forest pond with all the leaves floating in it.

I stamped with Essence White Stampy and BornPrettyStore stampingplate BP-30 and now i think it really looks like a forest pond.






















What do you think about these Flakies? Love them or hate them ;)
