Fireside Marshmallow

Hello everybody! Hope your Monday has treated you well! Mine passed by pretty quickly and now I get to be home relaxing. We are in our final week for the giveaway so there is still time to enter if you haven't done so yet!

So today's franken is another one of those difficult to name ones (good to know some things don't change. I still suck at naming, meh). Anywho, I called this one Fireside Marshmallow because its reminds me of a gooey marshmallow being licked by the flames of a campfire. Om nom nom!


So today's delicious manicure snack started with about 2/3 of a mini bottle's worth of TKB Luster Base.  I then added about 6 good sized drops of Wet 'n' Wild French White Cream. Next, I added the tiniest of drops of TKB Gloss Brown base to keep the white base from being too stark when worn (just say no to white out nail polish). Finally, I added one good sized scoop of TKB Mo' Betta Brown micro glitter (I would seriously LOVE to hear the name behind Mo' Betta Brown because that's just ridiculous), one scoop of TKB gold square glitter, and two scoops of YouMix Glitter .040 brick red hexes.

I took this picture with my iphone; anyone else seeing stripes?




I love the creamy white deliciousness of the base color! It's perfect to show the glitter without hiding it. It's so fall appropriate too! S'mores anyone? Swatches shows three easy coats and top coat. There was no fishing for the glitter and no dragging or balding. Dry time was a smidge longer than normal.

Also, I've decided the next time I eat a S'more it'll be this guy

Buahaha kinda creepy I know. But creepy in the best Ghostbustin kinda way!

Well my loves, that's all for today. See you next time for more franken adventures!

Today's Supplies Are From:
* TKB Luster Base, Mo' Betta Brown Glitter, and Gloss Brown: TKB Trading 
(I also purchased my gold glitter from here but I cannot find it in stock, sad face)
* So don't kill me, but it also looks like the brick matte red houses are also no longer in stock at YouMix Glitter. So I found this possible alternative. It's a little brighter but still gorgeous!
* Wet 'n'  Wild French White Cream: Walmart

  1. Really cute polish! Fireside Marshmallow is the perfect name... mm you've made me hungry.. haha. I love how you made the white base a little more toned down and a little creamier than a straight-up white-out polish. And the glitter combo in there is awesome!

  2. It's going to take me a while to get over that Stay Puft Marshmallow Man s'more, so I'll just think about *eating* s'mores instead...Okay, that's better. :) And GIRL you are burnin' up that mad frankening lab with some gorgie stuff here lately!! I love this. Heck, I love anything that remotely resembles food. This is all kinds of CUTE! :)

  6. I really like this! I'm loving polishes with a white creme base with tons of glitter. Oh, and thanks Becca, I REALLY want some s'mores now! (That's not a bad thing..) ;D
