Fancy Friday: Fairytales (beauty and the beast)

Hello again:)


Today the theme is fairytales. I already did a inspired mani of snow white that you can see here, and for today I wanted to do my absolute favorite story "The Beauty and the Beast". In disneys version the beast has a temper he can't control, but I've read other versions as one where the beast actually was a troll. In that version he was no bad person, it was only his looks that where the thing that made the love bloom slow and therefore it was more about the love than the behavior like in Disney's version. I like the Disney version but mostly because of the songs, the drawings and the magical rose.

So for today I chose to paint the rose and the mirror on my nails over the thermal polish Dance Legend nr. 182. And yes you are supposed to analyse the color shift into the shift both from fear to love and from cold darkness to rosey love with gold glitters that could be romantic light. Another thing that made this polish perfect for this purpose is that the colors of the inside of the dark castle actually mostly are these colors.

Dance Legend 182 needs three coats to be fully opaque I think. If you got very cold fingers you might wait until its a little warmer if you want the shift to appear, I had to heat this with a blowdryer to get it to show but it was also cold and rainy today.

Here it is cold:

Here its between warm and cold

Here its warm:

Appart from that I used these colors:
China Glaze "Fade Into Hue" - for the mirror
OPI "Don't Touch My Tutu" - white jelly I used for the glass - cool effect over the thermal!
OPI "Dim Sum Plum" - for the rose and heart. Essie "Cascade cool" for the highlights
OPI "Mermaids Tears" - for the rose's stem (in was more wisible in real life but i should have used a darker green for more contrast)
