Franken #1

I picked up a bottle of Wet N Wild Clear and Wet N Wild Black nail polish today at Walgreens. I've been wanting to franken polishes for a long time, and that's why I got fyrinnae samples a while back and I've been saving them. The day has come where I finally tried frankening for the first time. If you don't know already, frankening is the term used to describe the mixing of nail polishes to create your own; you could use nail polishes, glitters, fyrinnaes or any other cosmetic powders.

For my first franken, I used:
  • half a bottle of Wet N Wild Clear
  • some (no measuring instrument) of Meerkat fyrinnae sample
  • some of Android Angel fyrinnae sample
  • some of Chrome fyrinnae sample
TADAA~ the finished product:
metallic purple gray. The swatch is 3 coats and I love it! It's my first franken and I'm proud of myself! :) I absolutely love this color and it's so unique. I'm really glad that I tried frankening. This is one of my grails now haha! :P?


Would anyone like to name it? I'm open to suggestions! :)
hope you enjoyed,

    Great job on your first franken! It's so nice to have full control of what the final product will look like, isn't it? Looking forward to seeing more.

    ABOP: Thanks! :) I have a few more I couldn't resist trying out after doing this one hehe. Yeah it's great to mix what you want and if you don't like it, you could add more stuff to get the final product the way you want it ~ or close to it.
