I haven't been in the mood to swatch lately so that makes for slim pickin's when it comes to posting. Sorry I keep leavin ya'll hangin. I'm sure I'll get over it and start swatching my brains out and posting up a storm at some point. Until then, thanks for checking my blog to those of you that do.
Anyway, I have never really been into frankening mostly because I love my polishes and I don't want to mess them up, also because I would rather just buy something than make it myself. But the polish I have been craving isn't available freakin ANYWHERE it seems. I am talkin' bout a true green holo my dear ladies. Not a yellowy green, not a teal like China Glaze DV8, a TRUE GREEN. Also, none of this holo glitter or holo particle business. I wanted a real holo not some crappy blue green jelly with holo glitter in it.
So, I just sacrificed my first polish to make a franken. It's not as dark as I would like but it IS the color China Glaze forgot when they made the OMG collection, In my opinion, which is exactly what my goal was. So I present to you my sort of, technically, first franken polish-
I call it OMFG. I think that captures all aspects of this franken perfectly. This was 2 coats in outdoor lighting. So? What do you guys think? Did I done good?
Love, MM
P.S.- The recepe for this is roughly 1/2 China Glaze OMG and 1/2 Nfu-oh 569 with a few drops of black.
Perfection! I wanna try this now.
ReplyDeleteThats an amazing franken!!!!
ReplyDeleteOn your picture it looks like Nubar reclaim.
It's gorgeous! But when I first saw it I thought you swatched Nubar's Reclaim. :O
ReplyDelete2nd on Nubar Reclaim.
ReplyDeleteThats fkn stupid that my franken looks JUST like something else...oh well. I added more black to it just now out of annoyance.
ReplyDeletei guess now i own nubar reclaim in an orly mini bottle XD
SO pretty!! I think you did a great job...that is a real green holo - woot!!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Not bashing your franken, MM. It's gorgeous. Maybe add more forest green and black to make it darker and greenerer...
ReplyDeleteMmmm dark green holo... *drools*
You've done great! I've recently started frankening with some super cheap Dollar Tree stuff and some of my mega old polishes. Hit or miss, but I really enjoy it.
ReplyDeletePerfect color perfect name.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! And I love its name!
ReplyDeletei looove this color !!
ReplyDeletei have a giveaway in my blog come on see if you want :)
Nicely done, I like it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, OMFG is the best name!!
I must say its quite gorgeous
ReplyDeleteI think your franken is amazing and it certainly doesn't look like a dupe for Reclaim. Sure, there are similarities, but Reclaim is more blue-based. Yours is lovely :)
ReplyDeleteReally gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThis came out amazing, although I would give my left pinkie nail for a bottle of CG OMG ;-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lori about Reclaim-it is definitely more blue/teal than your pretty green. OMFG indeed!
Hahahahaha, GREAT NAME!!! :D
ReplyDeleteAnd this franken is BEAUTIFUL! =))
