Glittering Pumpkins

  I love this way this mani turned out!  I almost wish I had saved it for actual Halloween, but alas.  :)

Outdoors, shade
  I really wanted to use Zoya Tanzy, but I wanted it to be a bit darker... so I started this with two coats of NYC Spring Street, a nice darker orange creme I found at Target, then layered one coat of Tanzy over it.  I added pumpkins with Konad Special Black Pearl and BM-222 and BM-224 (ring finger).  I really love how that layering worked out here - the nails had an almost duochrome effect of the darker deep orange and the yellowy-light orange glow, it was fun.  Really pleased with the end result - very festive!
