Ha! Do you like the name I came up with? Well, it is the names of the polishes but I messed em around a little to spice it up some. He he. I really wanted to do a syrup mani with Teenage Dream and I did, but you couldn't even tell that it was a syrup mani. So I removed it and decided to try it over a different color. In case you don't know Teenage Dream is part of O.P.I.'s Katy Perry line but I just was able to get my hands on it. I was really excited for it but it has not lived up to the expectations I had. I really, really wanted it to be pink like it is in the bottle but I have to do four coats to get it to show up pink and it still doesn't reach bottle color. What can I say, I like pink. :-) So I grabbed one of my unused colors, Flirt by Jesse's Girl and decided to do the tips with Teenage Dream.

This was the original syrup mani. As you can see, you can't really tell it has a dark to light effect like I wanted it to. This was inside with no flash
