China Glaze - Zombie Zest

I'm so sorry for the slower posts this passing week. I am working very hard on some surprises that I hope to be able to let you all know about before the month ends. And between this and real life, I don't have much time left for my every day nail art. But I do try to keep up. Especially with the 33 Days Challenge going on!
Anyway, I planed to use today's mani for the 3D entry of the challenge tomorrow but it didn't turn very 3D. So I will show you this one today and try something else for tom
orrow.

So I started with China Glaze Zombie Zest, a polish that was pretty much forever in my wish list, until my dearest Gosia surprised me with it ♥ And do I love it so!!!
It's a slimy, dumpy poopy green jelly with tons of golden/iridescent shimmer-flakies. Definitely like how I would imagine a pond with zombies coming out it will look like.  
Formula is fun and easy to play with and surprisingly, it is mostly opaque in about 3 coats. Mostly, not 100% opaque, but it is a jelly dump after all. The swatches all show 3 coats with no base and no top.

And with the Zombies, I wanted to create a 3D eye, but I wasn't in the mood for too much layering so this idea will have to wait till I get to retry it. And for now, I have a semi-3D eyes. I stamped with Cheeky Jumbo Plate I and some MoYou special polish in white

When it was dry enough, I used some enforcement stickers that I filled with clear polish I applied white glitter on. Before that was dry, I added little rhinestones to the middle. Well, if it's not 3D, at least it is very Halloween appropriate, wouldn't you say?

I love that green polish. That is a very creative mani. I would not have thought of the reinforcement stickers. That is a great idea.
