well, this is the only silver foil i own. and it's named silvivor. . . . stupid, stupid name. even if i choose to ignore the stupid name, this polish doesn't have much going for it. this is the least shiny foil i've ever seen. seriously, it looks almost matte in real life (the last pic shows the dullness the best). plus it was a bit brush-strokey, and very glue-like in application. silvivor does not have a fan in me.
let me at least leave you with a couple positive thoughts on this polish. well, it's cheap ($1.99), so there's that. also, it mixes well in frankens. any kind of silver foil, when mixed in with another base color, adds tiny silver shimmer to a plain creme. i've used this polish a lot for frankening (which is why i bought it in the first place), so i guess it adequately served its function. that's about all i can say. now i'm headed off to bed and seriously hope that i don't wake up at 3:30. . . . again.
Heh, silvivor lolz
ReplyDeleteThat sucks you are experiencing insomnia, but I think things will only get crazier when the baby comes, for the first year anyways
Oh, don't I know it. . . . I'll never sleep again lol.
DeleteOh, that sucks :-( I still consider you lucky though. I don't remember exactly how far long you are but I think you are closer than I am. I have been having the SAME THING for the last several weeks. 3:30 hits, I have to pee, can't sleep till 5. Then, I have to wake up a half hour later and go to work for 10 hours. But apparently it gets worse so I can't complain!! (Which kind of scares me)
ReplyDeleteI have been hesitant to wear straight silver polish on my nails. I always wonder if it will make me look robotic. I have a few polishes like that I keep for frankening purposes.
Oh, I'm so sorry! That totally sucks :(. When do you get to take your maternity leave? I hope soon so you can rest!
DeleteYeah, this is my first time with straight-up silver too. I'm much more of a gold girl. But I do love adding silver shimmer to my frankens :).
I'm trying not to go on maternity leave until I absolutely have to. More time with the baby afterwards. I always daydream about being able to sleep in and stay at home before the baby arrives but I think I'll regret it if I have to cut short being able to stay at home with the baby later.
DeleteYeah, I understand. I can't imagine how hard it would be to leave a little newborn and go back to work :(. Hang in there!
DeleteThink of all the middle of the night potty runs as your body's way of preparing you for middle of the night feedings. You find out how well you can function on very little sleep when you have a baby around. LOL
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Hehe that's a good perspective. . . . Apparently I don't function too well lol. I hope I can get used to it!
