China Glaze Orange Knockout (Neon)

today's my birthday! i don't really celebrate my birthday, but i went out for lunch with my mom to IHOP because they are having a fundraiser to support Children's Miracle Network (great cause!!). since it's my birthday i got a free sunday... worth the embarrassment of getting sung to by the waitresses :)

my birthday nails had to be fun so i went super bright! China Glaze Orange Knockout (Neon) is just what its name implies... NEON(!!) orange cream! i'm so in love with it. i used three thick coats but they were super easy to apply and dried fast. it dried matte and ended up looking like a dirty traffic cone, but after two coats of Seche Vite for extra shininess it is became completely scrumptious!

one coat Seche Base, three coats OK, finished off with two coats of Seche Vite!

this mani just screams funsies, right?? if you don't already have plans, consider going to IHOP today. you get a free short stack of three pancakes and then you can leave the donation of your choice at the register... please support a great cause!! Ria :)
