NerdLacquer No Medal For Chewie

Nerdlacquer's No Medal For Chewie is the last of the Nerdlacquer polishes gifted to me during a recent polish swap with my wonderful blog friend Thithi of ::pretty::tough::nails::. If you've never visited her blog, get yourself on over there and take a look! She's got eclectic taste in lacquers and swatches 'em on the most beautiful nail beds you'll ever see.

No Medal For Chewie has a deep jungle green jelly base carrying loads of stunning golden green shimmers sprinkled with emerald green and gold hex glitters in various sizes from micro to medium-large. While the larger glitters in my mini bottle were a little hard to come by,  I enjoyed the gorgeous olivine shimmers and twinkling microglitters quite a bit. Once again, the formula was excellent. Smooth and fluid with even self-leveling distribution across the nail. To apply a NerdLacquer is to love it, honestly.

Photos show three coats of No Medal For Chewie over Seche Rebuild treatment and Butter London Nail Foundation basecoat plus a topcoat of Seche Vite. Chagrin du jour: there is a Chi hair (they are EVERYWHERE) swiping along the nail and cuticle of my left middle finger in these photos, I didn't see it there when I took the pics I SWEAR!

That's a pretty gorgeous green, no? I showed it to Fuzzy, another green-loving soul, who said: Yessss, my prrreciousssss... and stroked my nails in a depraved fashion. No, not really. But kinda. If you would like to see much better photos of a much better manicure using this polish, I direct you to Thithi's post about it, here.

Eleanor, I was hoping to get a chance to come up and visit before October but I've been kinda yucky lately so I don't know if I can get my act together enough to make the trip. But I've been thinking about you. On our big red maple the first few leaves are just starting to turn, scant scarlet tatters spread out over the bright green. There are all kinds of leaves down in the pen. I wish I felt more like raking....

What kinds of fall things are you up to lately?

love,
Aunt Liz
