Funky Fingers Fridays

Sorry, sorry, sorry this post did not happen yesterday! It was such a busy week! Anywho, these retail 3 for $5.00 or $2.00 each at  Five Below. Click on the link to see if there is one near you!

Week Five: Volts
     Volts is a nice bright creme blue. It was very sheer on the first coat, which made me nervous. After three coat I could still see my VNL (visible nail line) but putting on another coat would have made this manicure too thick.

Below I have Volts with two coats of Matte-ly In Love by Hard Candy as a top coat. I have seriously been obsessed with this matte top coat. I love putting it over a manicure that is showing signs of wear. It makes it look brand new again!

Next I have Volts with one coat of OPI - White Shatter. I love how vibrant Volts looks peeking through the White Shatter.

Lastly I have pretty exciting news! Funky Fingers came out with...Scales! Their version of shatter/crackle/fracture nail polish! The best part is that it is the same price as the regular colors. That's right, you can own Scales for only $2.00! I have also heard that they have a white Scales but it was not at the Five Below I went to. Don't worry though, I will keep you updated!

I was shocked to see that I didn't have any dupes for this electric color. Can you guys think of any?

Hi again!

Before I start, Steph over at Imperfectly Painted is having a giveaway this month in honor of her birthday! I would definitely suggest checking it out!

Week Four: Purple (Not the actual name because there is no name on the bottle! Oh no!)
     Purple is a very deep, almost black looking creme purple. It covered completely is two coats and it dried super shiny. I think this color looks amazing. I believe some people would classify this color as a "vampy" color. All I know for sure is I love this color!

Below I have Purple with Matte-ly In Love by Hard Candy as a top coat. At first I didn't really like this color matte but after a few minutes I decided differently. Once Matte-ly In Love dried completely I decided I loved it. Even now while I'm typing I can stop glancing at it!

Below I have Purple with a coat of Northern Lights by Out The Door. I have came to the conclusion that I am in love with Northern Lights. It can seriously make any nails polish pop, just like it did with this Funky Fingers.

I searched my collection TWICE for a dupe and I couldn't come up with one. Does anyone think they might have a dupe for this awesome color?

Hi Hi!

First off I would like to apologize for the lack of posts this last week. I left for Jamaica on Thursday and just got back on Tuesday. My plan was to preset some posts while I was gone, but I ran out of time. But I'm back now and I will make up for it!

Since I missed Funky Fingers Friday last week, I will post two today. In this post I would like to feature lasts week's Funky Fingers. Remember these retail 3 for $5.00 or $2.00 each at Five Below. Feel free to click the link to see if there is a Five Below near you!

Week Three: Semi-Automatic
     Semi-Automatic (I love this name!) is a black/gray shimmer. Most nails needed three coat to make them completely opaque because I had some issues with bald spot. I am a huge fan of this color! It is black without being so bold, yet it is definitely not plain.

Below I have Semi-Automatic with Matte-ly In Love by Hard Candy as a top coat. I am really liking this polish as a matte! It looks so smooth and even. Someday soon I will do a post dedicated to turning regular nail polishes matte.

Below is Semi-Automatic with a coat of OPI - Silver Shatter.

I looked through my collection and found what I thought might be a dupe, a black no name by L.A. Colors. Once I put it on my nails I could see the differences though. The L.A. Colors is blacker with a more defined shimmer.

Week Two: Bourbon St
     Bourbon St is a gold micro glitter that is crazy shiny. It took four coats to make it opaque, but it was so worth it! All of the photos were taken in artificial light because it was raining when I completed my nails. :( I will have to do this manicure again when it is sunny because I have a feeling this color is going to look even more amazing in the sunlight!

Below I have Bourbon St layered over Orly - Liquid Vinyl

I searched my collection for a dupe and came across OPI - Take The Stage. Take The Stage is definitely more orange than gold, but it is pretty similar to Bourbon St. The finish is almost identical since they are both a micro glitter. I have Take The Stage on my left finger and Bourbon St on my right.

UPDATE: I just wanted to show all of you how great this polish really is. Even though it is a cheap nail polish it is a great nail polish. Below is a picture of my hands after an eight hour day of work and they look as good as they did last night when I did them. Just encase you haven't read my profile, I am a carpenter. So that means Funky Fingers can last through eight hours of ripping out a kitchen, cutting wood, pulling nails, etc.

Hello there,

I am starting a new weekly post called Funky Fingers Fridays. I currently have 48 Funky Fingers nail polishes so I can almost make it through the whole year. These retail 3 for $5.00 or $2.00 each at Five Below. Feel free to click of the link to see if there is a Five Below near you!

Week One: Erin

Erin is a green glitter with a clear base. It took four coats to make it opaque and there are still a few bald spots, but WOW does it sparkle!

Natural Light

Artificial Light

I put one coat of Erin over black and white to give you an idea of how it looked layered. I used Orly - Liquid Vinyl for the black and OPI - Alpine Snow for the white. I LOVE Erin layered over black, it makes such a pretty color!

Natural Light

Artificial Light

I looked through my collection to see if I had a possible dupe and I came across Color Club - Object Of Envy from their Glitter Vixen Collection. Color Club and Funky Fingers are made by the same company (Forsythe Cosmetic Group) so I'm guessing that is why they are such a close match. however, I found that Object Of Envy applied nicer and was richer in color than Erin. I have Erin on the left and Object Of Envy on the right nail.

UPDATE: Just took this polish off and HOLY HANNAH! It took forever! But seriously, this is a great polish and an even better color so for me, it's worth the removal. :)
