Well hello there! October is flying by isn't it!??! I was going to start doing some Halloween nails but I remembered that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month (how can you forget?) and decided to do a Breast Cancer Awareness mani instead. Next week I will have some Halloween themed nails for you. So I knew there would be pink involved #duh but that was all I really had in mind when I started. Also my nails are super short right now! In looking at my nail polish collection I noticed I am deficient in pink polish (truth be told I am more of a purple girl) but pink polish is on my list (any excuse to buy polish right?) So I started from there. I used OPI Hey Baby Cream Gloss on my pinkie and middle finger topped with Julep's Monica.

Then on my pointer finger I used Sally Hansen Celeb City (great silver) topped with Nicole by OPI Make a Comet-Ment which is the closest thing to a holo I can find locally!

For the ring finger I used dotting tools and put different size dots of Celeb City, Hey Baby, and China Glaze's Naked on a Julep White Base of Brigitte.

Then on my thumb I painted it Julep's Brigitte then used a dotting tool to make a pink awareness ribbon in OPI, Hey Baby. Not great but not horrible for my first time using a dotting tool to draw a shape!

I hope this raises awareness and maybe causes someone to think about their boobies! Do a self check, have a mammogram, or get involved!!!

I dedicate this manicure to Sherry Pfeil, Marilyn Dedrickson, Donita Lance and Pam Vohs.
