Jelly Sandwich

Good evening! Excuse my being missing for a day or so. I received some crazy news about my family blood line and medical history, and it has been a little unsettling.

I have been seeing Jelly Sandwiches every where! I have never tried one, so I thought, why not? I don't have many jellies, or at least I don't think I have many...so I wasn't sure which polishes to use. I decided to go with hot pinks and multicolored glitter. Here's how it turned out.

Not too shabby for my first Sandwich. I do feel a little bit like a 12 year old again, with the multicolored glitter. But I actually really like it.

I used:
1 coat Sally Hansen's Double Duty base coat
1 coat Orly's base coat
1 coat Sally Girl crazy hot pink that doesn't have a name
1 coat Nicole Rainbow in the S-Kylie
1 coat Wet n Wild How I Met Your Magenta
1 coat Orly's No Chip top coat

These photos are both done inside with the flash. I really do like how the glitter looks as if it is just suspended in the polish. I also like how it dulls down the crazy colors in the glitter polish. I just feel like it is a little too young for my almost 26 year old hands.

The Sally Girl application was great. It is sheer, so it would take a few coats to become opaque. I used this color as the base of this manicure. It is CRAZY bright! Which I LOOOOVE.
The Rainbow in the S-Kylie was a bit hard to apply. I felt like I couldn't control the glitter. I have been having problems with glitter recently. Maybe I need to take a day and just play with glitter to get it to apply in a decent manner.

I really am enjoying the look of the jelly sandwich. I am going to play with my polish tonight and create lots and lots of jelly sandwiches! Lol. I can't wait!

What do you all think of this combo? Would you wear it? Should I try the glitter polish with a different color?? What color??

Until next time...

  3. I really need to try these jelly sams. How do you make out with the Orly No Chip? I love it cause it dries as fast as Seche Vite, but doesn't stink nearly as bad. However, my nails last for like half a day until they are cracked and chipping.

    1. I like the Orly No chip, but I do prefer Seche Vite. I've noticed some chipping with Orly. I will do a better test for ya! I usually only leave polish on for a day. Lol. So I will leave something on for a few days to tell ya how it does! <3 <3 <3
