30 Mani Marathon - Manicure 23: Inspired By A Movie

The Color Purple


I chose this movie more for the name rather than the content, I wanted to wear my new Zoya Stevie :p, so I began with a base coat and two coats of this purple polish.


Over that, I chose Zoya Monica and Bundle Monster plate BM-H18 to create the hearts that symbolize the sisterly love between Celie and Nettie throughout the story, that remained strong despite the hardships they both faced.

Dazzling Monica


Above is two coats of Zoya Monica, followed by one layer of Zoya Armor Top Coat.


To that, I have used a piece of cosmetic wedge sponge to dab a bit of Sally Hansen Gem Crush Razzle Dazzler to the tips, and a bit down the nail.


A layer of Gelous gel top coat helps to smooth out the rough glitter, and after 24 hours I will seal the manicure with a coat of Seche Vite. Seche Vite does not mesh well with Zoya polishes, so it is important to only use it after the Zoya has had plenty of time to cure.

Products Used:
One coat Beauty Secrets Moisturizing Base Coat
Two coats Zoya Monica
One coat Zoya Armor Top Coat
Sally Hansen Gem Crush Razzle Dazzler
One coat Gelous Advanced Gel Top Coat
One coat Seche Vite Top Coat (after 24 hours)
