Star Trek TNG: Chief Engineer

Star Trek The Next Generation is a goldmine of nail inspo, and I'm just loving the ongoing theme on my nails (and we're still loving the re-watch of the show at my house).  Next up is the endlessly determined Geordi La Forge.

I've started with a base of Heather's Hues Latte Love, a richly saturated chocolate brown with autumn-colored microflakes and a light touch of scattered holo dust.  This polish was an easy one-coater, with a thick formula that stayed exactly where I put it, no running or pooling in cuticles.

Though we'd just watched an episode where he turns into a blacklit-glowing alien, and he has plenty of retrofuture off-duty outfits, the character is defined in many ways by his visor which of course had to be the inspo here.  The gold stripes of the visor are the short hashmarks from Lina Feeling Shapely 10, while the medium weight straight silver bars come from Maniology M053, both using metallic Born Pretty stamping polishes. For the final touches, I've added small red dots of China Glaze Ruby Pumps to either end.
