Mani Monday's: Newest polish

 

Today's Mani Monday's theme is a fun one: Newest Polish!
I recently got some very nice polishes, so I was looking forward to this day. But when I thought back on which polishes were added to my stash last, I couldn't help but laugh a little as they were extremely exciting...

I love a black and white mani, but I was running out of my favorite black and I didn't have a true white, so I picked up a bottle of China Glaze Liquid Leather and Snow and, of course, those are my most recent purchase. I debated whether to cheat and show another polish, but that wouldn't feel right, so I grabbed the black and white and started playing around with them.

I started with a white base, so 2 coats of Snow. Normally white polish tends to be streaky and patchy, but this was not to bad. It wasn't opaque in 1 coat, but it wasn't as sheer as other whites I've tried either.

1 coat Snow

I followed with a second coat and then painted half of my nails black with Liquid Leather.

This was a bit boring, so I got out my stripers and added some black and white stripes. The result was a really fun and easy black and white mani.

Liquid Leather has been my favorite black for a while, but Snow is a completely new addition to my stash and I really like it. I always love the China Glaze brush and this formula was really good for a white. Maybe not the most interessting colors to show, but you can't go wrong with a black and white mani.

What's your favorite black and white?
