I thought I’d make my own version of YDKJ – Suede. I mean how hard could that be?
- Make YDKJ your base, 2 or 3 coats.
- Add a layer of shimmer polish.
- Then finish with matte top coat.
Perfect!
That’s what I thought. In a perfect world, that would have been exactly like the suede version. But I’m not in a perfect world. So…let the pictures show you what I ended up with.
I layered YDKJ with OPI Happy Anniversary. Then with China Glaze Matte Magic Top Coat.
I just think I put too much of Happy Anniversary. Or maybe its not the right kind of shimmer.
With flash. Still no love.
Well, at least I tried. 😀
Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!
I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.
Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.
Thanks for the comment Ria!
I really have no idea what to call this color. Doesn’t look like YDKJ anymore. Doesn’t even look like taupe. 😀
It looks really nice!I think you made a unique colour which is better than a dupe 😀
