Stump the Femme- Vintage Batman

Hello my lovelies and welcome to today's edition of Stump the Femme brought to you by the lovely Leah G.! Leah's idea was Batman. Now I'm going to be honest, I was ready to go all sorts of Christian Bale all up in this polish until I spoke with Leah and found out she picked this polish in honor of a convention; which then made me think vintage Batman (a la Mr. Adam West). So I based my polish off this photo I found:

This photo is NOT my own, unfortunately I can't find the credit. Sad face :(


So after finding my inspiration, I took 3/4 of a bottle's worth of TKB Glamour base. I then added one scoop of TKB black mica, 2 small scoops of Glitter Mix Boutiques .035 square Rainbow Matte mix, one scoop of .032 turquoise holo hex, and one scoop of .015 lime holo hex. Finally, BOOM! POW! I came up with this bad boy... (errrr... good guy?)





The black, of course, represents the color everyone associates with The Bat. The matte glitters signify the bright primary colors that were often used in the costumes and scenery of the show. The holo bits represent that little bit of extra POW! that you see every time Batman kicks an enemies tush! Swatches show three coats plus one coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dry. It was pretty easy to get the glitters out of the bottle and spread them evenly on the nail. The base color was translucent enough to show all the awesome glitter suspended in there. Well that's all for today's Stump the Femme. Congrats to Leah! Everyone else, remember to like my Facebook page as I will periodically ask for Stump the Femme ideas and the winner will receive a free polish! 

Well my loves, see you around next time to see what other creative juices we have flowing up in the franken lab! Until then, remember to keep it classy and creative!
