Nail Wheel Spam #1

Hi guys! This are my nail wheels, where I store swatches of my collection. I found these shots in my camera, and they’re form a while ago, so they’re not up-to-date anymore :p

I got my nail wheels on eBay something like $1.99 for a pack of 5, free shipping from China. 

I keep my nail wheels together with a medium sized book ring, which you can get at any scrapbooking store. I drilled the holes on the wheels with a Dremel, it’s quite easy to do :D

Wheel #1 (warm colors)

  1. Colorama Amarelo Sol
  2. OPI Fit a Bit
  3. OPI Guy Meet Gal-veston
  4. Zoya Sooki
  5. Colorama Puro Glamour
  6. Zoya Happi

Wheel #2 (purples)

  1. Impala Azul Aviador
  2. Jordana Silky Purple
  3. Jordana Lovebug
  4. Essie Splash of Grenadine
  5. OPI Movin’ Out
  6. Zoya Adina
  7. China Glaze Marry a Millionaire

Tomorrow I’ll share the rest of my wheels, thanks for looking :)

NOTD: Colorama Missão Azul + OPI Rainbow Connection
My cheap take on this mani from All Lacquered Up. Because, y’know, $18 for *ONE* polish? I’ll pass u_u

My base coat of choice is Colorama’s Pro-Estructurante base. It dries clear and smooth, a perfect surface for color. I don’t wear my polish for a whole weak, but so far no wear issues. Plus, it’s cheap and widely available at drugstores here.
My favourite top coat is a little more on the expensive side (not Seche Vite expensive, at $20/bottle, that stuff is a luxury), but oh so effective. Orly’s In-A-Snap was a godsend, it dries really quickly and there’s no shrinkage. Thanks to this pretty sheet marks are a long gone nightmare. Totally recommendable.
