I've never in my life actually wanted to put on a nude nail polish before. Never. But, the other night, for some reason unknown to me, I did want to put on a nude polish. Specifically, Cult Nails Cruisin' Nude. This is two coats, shown below. Sorry about the acetone abused skin!

Cruisin' Nude has a really pretty pink shimmer to it. I decided to add a coat of a long-time lemming for me that I just recently acquired, OPI What's Dune?

Aaaaahhhhhhhhh LOVES IT SO MUCH!!!

The holo is awesome, even with two top coats on! And it looks incredibly great in indoor lighting even when the holo is not revealing itself.

Understated yet flashy, dare I say? I have no idea what's going on with me that I'm craving this type of mani. In any case, I'm just going to go with it.

If you happen to have these polishes, or even a similar nude to put under What's Dune?, I highly recommend it! I ordered Cult Nails polishes from their site HERE. I'm not affiliated in any way with this brand, but I do know that it is a brand spanking new baby brand of polish, created by a fellow nail blogger, and she even lives really close to me here in Florida! How cool is that?!

I put this on the other night because of a week long MUA Nail Board challenge offered by Finch96. *waves "hi" to Finch* The deal is, if you like the bling, you have to wear conservative, understated colors all week. If you like and normally wear conservative colors, you have to wear glitter and ka-pow blingtastic stuff.

So, here I am with three coats of BB Couture For Men Intake Valve.

Intake Valve has a secret golden shimmer that doesn't translate onto the nail. It's a really hard color to describe in words. I'd say cool beige with a hint of rose. Don't be deceived by the warmth of the picture below - that's just the morning sun making it look warm!

This color feels Mod and fresh to me. It's definitely not what I normally wear, but it's kind of fun and different! I've gotten quite a few compliments on it, too, which is always a plus!

As for my toes, I was not thinking about the challenge when I did my pedi on Tuesday. I used OPI Boo-Berry with Hard Candy Break Up. It is so cool, I can hardly stand it. Don't ask me why, but I just looooove glow-in-the-dark pedis! And then add glitter....perfection. *sigh*
