#FF : Splash!!!

Splash is a polish I frankened for one of my friends. She has a thing for light/baby blues and was head over heels for Chanel Morning Rose's flecks and squishy look so I wanted to create a swimming pool blue, leaning turquoise or aqua, wih small irregularly shaped silver flecks.

Here it is, 2 coats without topcoat.:

My friend loved Splash and it was so gratifying to send it to her.
What do you think about it? Are there any dupes that come to your mind?

    WOW!!! I didn't think you'd all like this franken. I'm so happy you do because it was really created for a very special friend.
    @a traveller I just used a clear nail polish with silver flecks that I mixed with aqua and a touch of green and white. I couldn't give you an exact formula for this one because the amount of clear will depend on the opacity of your bas color. The best would be to swatch on a whell while adding the blue to the clear.

    This turned out lovely. Your friend will be stoked! What is the brand and name of the clear polish with silver flecks? I don't know if I have seen anything like that before and I would love to attempt this myself.. Thank you for sharing.
