Yellow isn't one of those colours I just have lying around. I have a grand total of two yellow nail polishes in the drawer, up one whole bottle on last year.
I'm being kinda harsh, I actually really like this shade from NYC which is called Lexington Yellow. So much so that I've nearly used up the bottle and will definitely be repurchasing it. It's not an In Your Face neon yellow, it's just subtle enough to pass for a pastel and when you add some nail art it becomes positively pretty.
I used two coats of NYC Lexington Yellow as my base. I added some glequins on my ring finger and two coats of Ozotic 530 on the index. I topped it off with two coats of Sally Hansen Advanced Hard as Nails.

ReplyDeleteLove this :) I still haven't got around to trying glequins. I need some!!
ReplyDeleteI think this was pretty, I love yellow nail arts! :D
ReplyDeleteI just got the yellow & orange from the Color Club Take Wing collection for some Halloween nail art. They are so pretty & shimmery!
ReplyDeleteIt really is a nice yellow! Pretty mani, Sammy :)
ReplyDeleteReally cute mani! Looooving the yellow polish you used! unfortunately that brand is not sold where I live (Switzerland).
ReplyDeleteI own several yellow polishes including OPI fierely Fiona, American Apparel Manila,and Butter, Essence My yellow fellow, and Chanel's Mimosa, but they're not too many,
Oh, I forgot! I have a new blog, may be you'd like to check it out!
DeleteYou know I love the glequins, Sammy! :-)
ReplyDeleteSuper cute yellow - it's not banana yellow but it's not neon either, I love it :D
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually a yellow fan, but this polish is so pretty!!
ReplyDeleteI think this looks reallly pretty!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, I only have one yellow polish!

ReplyDeleteby the way the new MJ IMAGE PLATES are already released. If you are interested, you can visit my blog, there are swatches and reviews of MJ image plates, thank you! ^_^
Where do you buy the glequins??? I haven't seen them at my beauty supply or my craft stores either. They are really cute and dress your mani up very nicely.
ReplyDeleteI only own about 3 yellows myself but my fav is also an NYC shade - Lemon Cream. It's a few shades lighter than this but it's lovely too. I never know how to 'dress up' yellow polish so this is a good idea :)
ReplyDeleteI only have a few yellows, but I found that they look fabulous as tape manis or dotticures, especially with blue, green, or pink.
DeleteLovely with the nail with hexagons and the one with the glitters. It makes a lot of difference compared to 'just' polished yellow nails.
ReplyDeleteI really like that shade of yellow, usually I either find yellow to be too pastel or too neon. That shade is perfect!
ReplyDeletei'm not a big yellow fan either, i had only 2 yellows for a while and i finally got 1 more with the OPI so so skullicious set. i reall like this clean and simple mani
ReplyDeleteperfect *_* love it *_*
