Celebrated the new year with Milani Cyberspace saran wrap nails!

Happy New Year, everybody! For me, New Year's Eve means sparkly nails. I went the opposite route of what I usually would've done for sparkle, which is putting a bunch of glitter on my nails. Instead, I opted to use my recently purchased bottle of Milani Cyberspace. I learned on the Makeupalley message boards that the Milani holos were on clearance at CVS, so I went and picked up Hi Res, the purple holo, and Cyberspace, the baby blue one. For this look, I started with 2 coats of Sinful Colors Nova on my pointer and middle fingers. I used 2 coats of American Apparel Cameo Blue on the ring and pinky. After that, I used the plastic wrap method to add on some Milani Cyberspace. I really like the resulting look, each finger looks kind of like an intricate stamp to me.  I'm not sure if others would agree with that assessment. Join me after the jump if you want to judge for yourself after you see more pictures of this look.

 I am not huge on holographic polishes, but I still really recommend the Milani holos if you can still get ahold of them.  They are slightly sheer, but build to opacity in 2 or 3 coats. What's cool about this is that you can layer the holos over different base colors to create different looks. I first wore Milani Cyberspace over blue skittle nails, and it looked good-and different!-over each one.  I'm hoping to eventually do a post with one of the Milani holos over different colors. In the meantime, I'm pretty happy with this look over 2 blues. :)
