#RedCoatTuesday with Cirque Madder & Reflektor


Hi lovelies!

Happy Red Coat Tuesday! I'm secretly crossing my fingers, hoping that they'll successfully drag out the story another season after this one ;) I just can't say goodbye to PLL yet!

Today I have a mani with some polishes that I accidentally purchased from prettypolish.nl. Oops! It was a Vday sale, so I made it my Vday present. Lol! I got Cirque Colours "Madder" and "Reflektor" and when I held them in my hands for the first time, I knew I had to combine them. Such beauties!


I kept it very simple. I started by applying one coat of "Madder", which was enough, whoa! Let's have a look at it on its own: 

Oh and yes, all flash pictures except for the macro, as it had been rainy all day, unfortunately. Oh and yes, my nail shape, I had to, because my hand slipped on my car door handle and painfully bent and broke my nails. It could've been worse, but since I had been taking ridiculous care of my nails for a week and needed to swatch two polishes for Ms. Sparkle, I was quite pissed. Aaaanyways...

Then I applied SV, for fast drying purposes, and continued to tape off the sides, leaving a triangle, and applied "Reflektor". Then I applied more SV, waited, taped off again and applied Sinful Colors "Black on Black". I finished it off with more SV and I was done!


What do you think of this mani? And should I keep this nail shape? I'm leaning towards 'yes', because almonds are way easier to maintain, haha!
Now be sure to check out the creations of my fellow PLL fans!

  11. You got me in stitches at your "accidental" purchase LOL
    I usually find myself kind of upset when I receive order confirmation emails, thinking "Did I actually do that? Really?!" :D

    By the way this combination is amazing, these polishes are a perfect match!
    About shape, I'm totally into square/squoval, even if I know almonds are way better to maintain and almost break-proof, especially at corners.
