Happy hump day! I’ve been wanting to wear this polish for quite a while now but I decided to save it for W week :) This is one of Ketlyn’s awesome creations, BG Cosmetics Walking Dead. This is the first BG polish I got interested in and it’s cos of this polish that I got to know Ketlyn :) I know there’s also a few fellow Walking Dead TV-show fans here on our little group so let’s all take a deep breath now and think about Daryl Dixon. Ok, got that out of our systems and now we can continue with the polish ;)
This is three thin coats of Walking Dead, a coat of Glitter Food and G & G HK Girl top coat.
Walking Dead is described as “An opaque mossy green, filled with black glitter and speckled with red hexagonal glitter” on BG Cosmetics website. This applied well and three thin coats was enough for opaque result. I didn’t really need to use Glitter Food with this one but I did so anyways. I think that adds a little depth and smoothness to the finish. I quite like the color combination and this is definitely unique in my collection. And of course, you gotta love the name!
Now I’m off to paint some more walls again.
***All the products used in this manicure were purchased by me.
Love the name, love the polish! I think the colors match perfectly with the series, or that's exactly what I pictured in my head anyways! ^^ GORGEUOS!
Never watched the show, but that color is gorgeous! Love the shade of green, not too dark, not too light, just perfect!
I love the contrast between the intense green base and the red glitters!
Oh my goodness, I love this! I need to snag some of her nail polish!
Wow, this is definitely suitable for the walking dead!
About the only thing that can drag me away from Daryl is nail polish lol I'm obsessed with the show and I love this polish!
This is too pretty to make me think of zombies!!
It's a great interpretation of the show ;)
Oooh that's super pretty! Zombietastic =D
This was one of my first Bg polishes! I wish I had swatched it when I had some length though, since it looks awesome on long nails! Now if we could talk Kett into making a Daryl Dixon polish! MMMMM…Daryl….. sorry. Had a moment there! ;)
I just found your blog by accident. I was looking for "THE Polishaholic" – but, I'm glad I did. You've got some gret swatches :) Anywho, I'm curious though – how do you keep your cuticles so nice? I wear acrylics as well, and the whole process of sanding, along with the acrylic really kills my cuticles. I use CND solar oil 2x a dy, which has helped a bit, but they still get yucky. And then I'm never sure if I should push them back, or use a cuticle remover tool, or a gel…It makes me feel a bit clueless! lol.
So any tips for good cuticles care? It would be really cool if you could blog your cuticle routine, and teach the rest of us nail-gals how to keep our cuties in good shape :)
Hi Jessica and thank you for your comment :) I can definitely do a cuticle care tutorial in the future when I am caught up with swatching, answering comments and emails. Moving to a new house really put me behind on everything.
I have no big secret though. I push them back using my thumb nails every day while I take a shower and cuticles are soft. I use Lush Lemony Flutter, a lot of hand creams and cuticle oils every night.
What comes to acrylics, the acrylic is not supposed to touch your cuticles. Also the filing/sanding shouldn't break your cuticles. I have a photo of my hand on my Instagram right after I fixed the gel layover and my cuticles are in perfect condition :)
I'll be back with the tutorial later on :)
This polish is quite an unique one!
your blog and your nails are amazing!
Thank you :)
Thank you ladies for all your lovely comments :)
