Petites: Island Smoothie + Guest Appearance!

Today I have a polish that I have featured on my blog before and even then I wasn't very impressed with it.  That polish is Petites Island Smoothie. I picked this polish up at a Wal-Mart in Florida in 2010. I really can't remember using it that much. The reason being is I was so disappointed with it. In the bottle it's a beautiful pearly pink color but on the nail pink does NOT show up. I'm guessing the finish is somewhat of a metallic because it leaves behind streak lines until it is dry. For me, this polish does not stand well on it's own and I will probably only be using it to layer or as an "underwear" for other polishes.

Now I'm sure there is a question about who the guest appearance is...I'd like to introduce my mother-in-law's nails.

My "mil" wanted something simple and natural. I picked out several of my neutral colors and she ended up choosing China Glaze Camisole. Camisole is a sheer peachy brown with subtle shimmer. I applied two coats to mil's nails. On the accent nail, I used WnW French White Creme with a stamper to stamp on the rose. I then topped all nails with Essie Luxeffects Pearl Perfection. She didn't want anything to out there this time but said next time, we can go for something more. I used flash in the picture below so the details can be better seen.
