April is Autism Awareness Month - Nfu Oh 53 over Color Club Bright Night

Next to all my neutral manis the Paint it Blue series for the Autism Awareness Month is certainly not forgotten.

Some weeks ago, I commented on a post of Nfu Oh 53 (twist my arm and shake me head down but I cannot remember the name of the Blog) that I just love it and that this beauty still carries the label "untried".  Now what better opportunity to rescue this stunner from the vaults than to include it in my Autism Awareness manis?

By now I have came to expect Nfu Oh's flawless formula for Flakies and Nfu Oh 53 did not disappoint. In the contrary I can sing their praise on and on like a broken record. I applied one effortless coat over one coat of Color Club Bright Night. I posted about this polish last week - you may find the post here and a small photo for reference below (it happened to be an Autism Awareness Paint it Blue mani too).


Mattified flakies??? - Yes, please:





I used Essie Matte About You.

Final thoughts: While I absolutely love this look, I have to admit that the turquoise and green flakies simply drown next to the intensity of Color Club Bright Night. However IRL they are more visible - though not popping in the eye!!!

I purchased Nfu Oh 53 from Pshiiit Boutique and Color Club Bright Night from Head2Toe.

I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!
