Franken Turkeys
Isn’t it strange how you can go from hating a color to craving it like crazy? I used to hate turquoise polish on me, and I even sold my Orly Halley’s Comet, but suddenly I found myself desperate for a teal creme! I didn’t even have time to order something online, I had to have it instantly, so of course the answer was frankening.
I mixed nailstation haute voltige, IsaDora Vintage Mint and two drops of IsaDora Hunter Green, and my franken Turkeys was born! (You might wonder why the polish has such a random name, it’s simply because “turkeys” sounds like the Norwegian word for turquoise, turkis. Cheesy, I know, I know…)
Of course this blue/green wants to look blue and only blue in pictures, but it’s actually more green in real life. The perfect medium between blue and green, I’d say. A darker version of China Glaze For Audrey.
Have you ever done a 180 and gone from hating a polish color on you to wanting and loving it, or is it just me?

I totally understand what you mean. This is why I can NOT purge. I keep all my children close just in case the mood strikes me or if they grow on me.
I purge then I regret and get the stuff back, haha!
LOL, exactly.
Kan du vise/forklare litt mer om hvordan du lager en frankenlakk? Tenker at det blir mye søl utav det eg
Man heller de lakkene man vil blande i en tom neglelakkflaske, lakken er så tyktflytende at det skal mye til før man greier å søle, altså.
Hvis du vil se litt mer, anbefaler jeg bloggen Dr. Frankenpolish. Her er et innlegg om hvordan hun går fram når hun lager frankens: http://drfrankenpolish.wordpress.com/category/frankenpolish-101/

That is such a great colour!! Love it!
Thank you, karla!
Ooh, well this came out pretty! I regret getting rid of a lot of purples. I had…an overdose of purple, I guess and I sold most of them! Now, I’m slowly buying more and more because I’m craving them again.
The name is WICKED cute, Solveig!
Haha, thanks!
It’s strange how our tastes change, isn’t it?
