Andreia's Dragon Wings
I did a little layering for today's manicure.I used 2 coats of Andreia 81, a gorgeous olive green with gold shimmer then one layer of Nfu-oh 40.I instantly fell in love. My nails look like dragon wings, well what I imagine they would look like.The pictures do not do this justice since my friend Sun was shy today.
This is the best olive green ever!
Peek a blue
Do you see the dragon scales?

Sea Ya Later Sailor
OPI Sea Ya Later Sailor is a great layering polishThis Two coats of SYLS over BB CoutureElectric Avenue
I think this would be gorgeous over Navy blue or a Blackened Teal
The shimmer looks almost like a light aqua glass fleck
A very Mermaidy color. I will be revisiting this one!
