blueberry blast off nail art with Wet n Wild Saved by the Blue


This is supposed to be a dupe for China Glaze Frostbite ( HERE is Dollface 22772 swatch comparison )  ChG Frostbite has been on my list for a few years - I have seen it in stores and have picked it up and put it down many times but never bought it becuase i thought it would be 'just another blue polish'. All the photos, including these ones, that I have seen do not do it justice. It is a fabulous shade of blue and whether you get it from Wet n Wild or China Glaze it is a must have. If you love blue polish you need this colour.

 My Mani today was 3 coats of Wet n Wild Saved by the Blue, with LA Colors stripe polish in Dark Blue and Blue glitter stripe polish along with a few nail gems in dark blue. I added TC after the nail art stripes then set the nail gems in the wet top coat... they hung on over night and throughout the day - even though I did quite a bit of crafty things only 1 fell off!

Stuff I used; WnW Saved by the Blue, LA Colors Dark Blue Stripe polish & LA Colors Blue Glitter

  1. This is beautiful. I have Frostbite but I have yet to use it... I also love how you did the blue stripes that blended in with the background :)

  3. Very nice job! I love your use of gems.
    ChG Frostbite is really a stunning polish, I've bought it recently and I wore it only once, but it's definitely one of my favourites.

  4. I have both Frostbite and Saved by The Blue and I can say without a doubt that they are dupes! I was so happy because Frostbite DOES NOT like my body chemistry. If you have this colour, you don't need Frostbite.

    I love that you use affordable polishes 95% of the time. It makes it easier on my wallet to read your blog :)

  5. I really like how subtle and bold this is at the same time!

  6. Love this mani. I know what you mean about that stinky art deco polish. The smell is atrocious!
