China Glaze Riveting - Swatches and Review

If you saw my Tiger Mani post from yesterday then you know that I used China Glaze Riveting as my base. Today I am going to show you Riveting on its own (a little backwards, I know - but I am a little backwards sometimes so it works! LOL).

Riveting is a gorgeous orange packed with golden shimmer. It was a little on the thin side but application was easy. I used 2 coats but it could have used a 3rd. No top coat in the photos. These were taken on a rare cloudy day so they are all under cloudy skies or indirect lighting.

Isn't Riveting a stunner? Such a great color for the sizzling Summer!

Move over Tony...This is GRRRRRRReat!

Are you ready to go into the wild tonight? I know I am!

Tiger manicure

I have had this idea in mind for quite awhile and I am so glad I finally managed to get it from my mind to my nails! Reminiscent of Tony the Tiger, no?

I used China Glaze Riveting as my base (why, oh why did I wait MONTHS to wear this?!) and stamped on the stripes using Milani Black Swift and Bundle Monster plate BM16. This particular image (well, pretty much all of the full-nail images from the first BM set) is too small to cover the entire nail and I had to do some "piecing together" on all nails except for my pinky. I did not add topcoat because I was afraid of smearing.
