Homemade polish - Frankenpolish
Written by Elisabeth on June 2, 2009 – 14:12 -
As I have a self confessed love of all things colourful and shiny I am, ofcourse, madly in love with nail polish. I spend way too much time on the net surfing my favourite polish blogs, reading comments on MUA or just thinking about what to do with my nail next.
This is how I discovered the art of frankenpolish. This simply means that you mix your own polish - nothing so elaborate as cooking up nail polish from scratch (and that would indeed cause some interesting stories to tell the insurance company I’m sure…).
There’s some that says that you should not mix different polish brands, a warning I simply ignored with good results. And while I’m sure you’ll get your frankenpolish mixed more easily with mixing ballz I did just fine without it. I had my hearth set on a dusty green and mixed some gray, some green and some black in an empty bottle, shook like crazy and ended up with the lovely polish pictured in this post. It’s aptly named “Olive for my martini”. So far this is my only franken, but I’ll probably try it again some day soon! It was way fun!
