Hello again, followers!  Sorry for the delay with the posts!  Last week I was out of town and this week I’ve been having some serious lighting issues with these nails.  I wouldn’t call this a great photo, but you can see the details and I wanted to get these posted so I can move on to the next idea which I’m pretty excited about! Running a Gaga nail blog, it was only a matter of time before I would need a polish that matched her Viva Glam Gaga lipstick for MAC. Lucky me—as soon as I found one I snatched it up!  It’s Presto Pink by Sally Hansen Insta-Dri. Unfortunately, as is the case with a good many nail colors, this one looks like a perfect match in the bottle but it dries 2 or 3 shades darker.  But no matter!  It gets the job done!  Here’s a side-by-side for comparison, but it’s really best to see these in-person.  (Again, I’m having lighting issues so I’ve also included a stock image of each.) It only seems fair to bring a little deco into Gaga-inspired nail designs, so I had to do this look!  Gaga walked the red carpet and performed in this look at the 2010 AmfAR AIDs Research Gala as part of the Viva Glam promotion.  She also did a short, 1 minute art film with Terence Koh entitled 88 Pearls.  My total half-pearl count for all ten nails is 130! ox PolishedPawsUp
