St. Patrick's Day Manicure

Hello and welcome!!

I'll use any excuse to try some nail art since I need some practice!

Therefore I did this St. Patrick's day manicure. It was pretty easy and fun.

Sorry my ring finger is wounded at the moment. Also the picture is kind of blurry... apparently this is the "High sensitivity" mode on my camera but it seems to always just make blurry pictures (fail on my part or camera's?) From now on I'll stick with the "Intelligent auto" mode, hehe.



Colors used:

China Glaze Four Leaf Clover (more green than it looks in the picture)
Sephora by OPI It's Real 18K Gold Top Coat

Galaxy Nail Art


Welcome to my blog!

This is my very first post on here but I was just so proud of my nail art that I had to share.

I used a tutorial from cutepolish to help me create this nail art look.

I'm a little down about how the stars turned out, it was looking so good before that! Next time I'll use a small dotting tool instead of a toothpick.


Colors used:

Black - Revlon Colorstay Stiletto
White - Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On
Yellow - China Glaze Happy Go Lucky
Orange - Sinful Colors Cloud 9
Pink - Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Coral Reef
Dark Blue - Revlon Midnight Affair
Glitter - China Glaze Glistening Snow


I mixed the holographic glitter with some topcoat because it was too opaque on its own.The glitter definitely took the nail art to the next level so I recommend not skipping that step!
