Today I bring you my second 'official' blue manicure for Paint It Blue. As I mentioned last week, the Paint It Blue initiative aims to raise awareness for Autism.
The first manicure I want to show you is my current manicure. I am loving this combo. While it may be a bit subtle, I still love it.
Yesterday I received my very first Cirque polishes. I have been coveting Cirque for quite a few months and I was psyched to finally have some of my very own.
Ophelia contains gorgeous periwinkle blue glitters in various sizes in a clear base. Ophelia was a last minute decision, but as I pulled it out of the box, I knew it would be the very first Cirque I would wear.
I decided to layer Ophelia over another one of my newly acquired untrieds - Orly Boho Bonnet. Boho Bonnet is a gorgeously soft blue-grey creme.
I think next time I might layer Ophelia over a white or a darker blue, as the glitters are very similar to the colour of the Orly, but I love how it is nice and subtle.
Cirque polishes are available to us Aussie gals through Femme Fatale cosmetics for $13 a bottle. Unfortunately, Ophelia is currently out of stock, but hopefully it will be back soon.
I was lucky and bought the Orly through OzSale for the awesome price of $9 a bottle.
To also raise money for ASPECT Australia - a not for profit organisation committed to helping people on the Autism Spectrum - a too awesome for words auction has been organised. A stack of Aussie and overseas indie polish creators have donated one of a kind polishes to a silent auction. Check the link in the badge below for more info and swatches of these stunning polishes.
What a great idea, I will certainly go over and have a look, what a wonderful way to raise money for such a worthy cause.
