BB Couture - Top Gun

Inside my car in daylight.
Inside with my new LED light bulb 4 watts


Outside some sun. Crappy phone picture.
Inside at work, good lighting.

Inside Flash.





This polish has the same satin finish as Key Largo and American Gigolo. I decided to try this one with a top coat of Seche Vite. I like the satin finish, but you have to be real good about applying it evenly. The thing that I like about this polish is the blue looks a tiny bit greyish. It has the same feel to it as OPI Ski Teal We Drop but in a truer blue. The inside picture under my eco-friendly LED light bulb is truest to how this polish looks most of the time. As soon as I was done with my left hand, I had already decided I wasn't taking it off and was wearing for my NOTD for tomorrow with my blue scrubs. If asked about the polish tommorow, I am going to fess up about doing it my self and let them know I am a blogger. This is way more fun to blog about than say the current republican primaries. Although, I did blog about Santorum, But that was the Manglaze polish names after the candidate.

In summary, this polish should be in most guys wheel house. It is a conservative yet very nice darker blue, but not so dark as to be mistaken for black. I have a few other darker blues that only reveal their awesomeness in mega sunlight. This polish looks great in any light. Check back, if I get some sunlight tomorrow, I will add a daylight picture.

  2. It does look like velvet without a topcoat. I can't wait to see what it looks like in the daytime. I'll be sure to post a picture.

  3. Love it! It's interesting without being in your face and not so dark it looks black! The shimmer is really pretty.

  4. I love this color! Actually I am a fan of the whole collection and seriously who doesn't love the Top Gun movie????? And just think you are like a "maverick" forging ahead and proudly wearing polish! Good for you for letting people know you are blogging. My non polish friends and family don't get the whole blogging thing at all. I've been doing it for over 3 months now and LOVE it. I'm glad I have polish friends who truly understand the appeal!

    1. Blogging and reading blogs is a fun way to share an interest. However, it really sucks me in deeper. I love doing it and am just going to enjoy it whether people understand or not.

    3. Next up you'll be ready for some nail art! We haven't seen "manly" nail art yet! I keep hoping for some stamping plates with barbed wire images and handcuffs--hopefully one day my dream will come true!

  5. My daughter and I have done water marbling together. I have done some nail art. I wish bundlemonster would come out with some masculine designs. I am pretty good at zebra stripes. Ive done those on my toes. my flicker page has other nail art Ive done. My nail beds are bigger than alot of the designs on the konad plates. I was thinking this color would look good with some nail art.

  6. I added some more pictures in different lights. I beat the crap out of my nails today. they were trashed before lunch. Some of the picture bear witness to how bad they are. I had envisioned wearing this color the rest of the work week. I have not had any negative remarks at all. I want to wear my Glitter Gal 10 to Midnight to work. Maybe I will next week.
