SpectraFlair holo frankens

So I thought it would be nice to showcase all of my SpectraFlair frankens in one post. I know I've been SF crazy for a while, so I promise I'll give it a rest for a bit after this.


This is my holo topcoat franken I named Starshine:


A W E S O M E over black!


Here is my black holo named Black Cat:


This is my un-named blue franken from the other day:


and these I haven't posted yet. This is a dark purple color, bordering on blurple. It shows much lighter in the swatch then IRL. I haven't named this one yet:


and lastly my attempt at a red franken. It's a bit too pink for me, so I may play with it a bit. I like how the holo effect shows blue in this one. This is also un-named so far:


and that's all of 'em for now. I have one bottle with clear and some pigment in it waiting for me to be inspired. This was all made with only one gram of pigment, and I still have more left in the bag, probably 2 or more frankens worth. I wonder if I should be added a bit more pigment to some of them?

Thanks for looking!

China Glaze Fortune Teller + Starshine franken

Starshine, you used to be silver, love light love affair, you used to make me shiver........ah, but I'm getting ahead of myself.


First off, I couldn't wait to any longer to use a Halloween background. I know it's early, but I'm just feeling the season lately. I promise I'll wait until closer to October to full on decorate for Halloween. ha ha. But in that spirit, today's NOTD is Fortune Teller from China Glaze. FT was a Sally's exclusive color from a couple of years ago. This is such a brilliant color, a black base with regular and hex orange glitter mixed in. So appropite for the season and it's got a cool name too ♥



Here's a good view of the glitter, make sure to enlarge:


and finally, my holo topcoat franken that I've named Starshine. The recipe is easy, it's just SpectraFlair pigment mixed in clear nail polish. Unfortunately, it's not a great combo with Fortune Teller because it covers up the orange glitter. Still, you can see how cool it looks over black.


Thanks for looking!

Holo Franken: ??

Hmm, I think this is a franken in progress. It's still a bit too light for me, I think I want a darker blue, kind of like OPI DS Glamour....so I'm giving myself an excuse for not naming it yet! LOL.



I used Chelsea's Oscar Blue, clear and SpectraFlair pigment. What do you think, should I leave it or tweak it a bit?

Thanks for looking!

Holo Franken: Black Cat

So is anybody else in the Halloween spirit? I can't wait for September so I can start decorating!!! ha ha. I just got in my SpectraFlair pigment and the 1st holo I wanted to make is a black (ala My Private Jet). I was trying to come up with a cute name for it....I'm lousy at franken names....so I decided it give it a Halloween touch and name it Black Cat.

I used Wet and Wild Black Creme, clear and SpectraFlair.





It's so holo-y!!


I'm very pleased with the results. For great SpectraFlair frankening tips, please visit More Nail Polish. I used her straw technique and instructions at the bottom of the post.
