I have a gorgeous red from Loreal to share with you today called Apple of My Eye. I picked this one up on sale at Duane Reade a while back and I believe it's one of their older polishes. Apple of My Eye is a bright red jelly that applies well, but it is sheer. Here it is with two coats and no top coat.

You guys know I never wear a jelly without trying a jelly sandwich. So I sandwiched Victoria's Secret Supercharged between coats of Apple of My Eye then topped it off with Underground Nails Quickie Dry Top Coat.Artificial Light

I wish you guys could have seen this mani in person. It was so pretty!!! These two make the perfect combo!Since this week's Twinsie Tuesday theme is a matte and gloss combo mani, I used Pure Nail Lacquer's Simplify It to matte this manicure.

I then freehanded a coat of Underground Quickie Dry Top Coat diagonally.Artificial Light

It was difficult to capture this look, but I think you guys get the idea. I haven't tried anything like this before, but I would like to experiment with matte and gloss in the future.Have you ever tried doing a matte and gloss combo manicure?
