Day 4: Freestyle or Recreate

I decided to go with Lucky Charms cereal for today's challenge. I thought they'd be fun and nothing says Irish more than hearts, stars, horseshoe, clovers and blue moon, pots of gold, and rainbows, and the red balloon! I had to mix a lot of nail polishes to get the correct colours, but I'm pretty happy with how they turned out.

The first four Lucky Charms marshmallows and a bowl of cereal. (The orange was a mix of Jail Bait and Cream Puff. The light green was a mix of Glowstick and Cream Puff while the darker green was a mix of Glowstick and the Old Navy polish.)

The last four Lucky Charms marshmallows and the logo. (The yellow in the rainbow was a mix of Belsize Park and Cream Puff. The gold was a mix of Belsize Park and Jail Bait.)

The nail polishes that I used. The new ones were the purple called Touch of Class by boe, the "cereal" and background was Cozu-melted in the Sun by OPI, the pink was Ballerina by the Color Workshop, and the creme red was something old that I found in my mom's stash that doesn't have a name or brand on it any more.

Day 3: Rainbows, Pots of Gold, or Leprechauns

I was pretty happy with how my nails turned out today, especially considering my previous failings in this challenge. I was hoping that my new nail tools would arrive in time for me to do my nails, as I've ordered them online about a week ago, but they hadn't come. I decided to change my idea around a little bit as a result and I did a dot rainbow.

I first painted them a light blue. I chose this colour to represent the sky behind a rainbow.

 This is my dotted rainbow complete.

And with the pot of gold! (I used my little brush for the pot and the dotter that I used for my rainbow on the gold to make it look more like coins.)

The nail polishes that I used for the rainbow, pot, and gold were the same as yesterday. The light blue was No Room for the Blues by OPI.

Day 2: Ireland inspired

I had a lot of fails on this manicure. It was awesome in idea, but it failed a lot. I now realised that the reason was because the white that I was using was an old one that my mom has and it is chunky. Because of how they ended up, I just did some major clean-up but I decided not to waste my time cleaning them nicely.

This is my base colours. I ended up changing the rainbow colours as I added more.

 My nails part way done.

I had a lot of dots all over my ziploc baggy so that I could use my fine brush.

 My finished nails. Pot of gold, rainbow,  map of Ireland, Irish flag, leprechaun hat.

Green beer, Irish flag, horseshoe, Celtic knot, shamrock

All of the nail polishes that I used: Plugged-in plum from OPI, Animal-istic from OPI, Frostbite from China Glaze, Cream Puff from Creative, Belsize Park from Nails Inc, unnamed from Old Navy,  Glowstick from Wet'n'Wild Fergie, Wet'n'Wild something black that had it's label worn off, Gold Fusion by China Glaze Magnetix, Color Flip by Revlon, and Jail Bait by Spoiled 

 This is the nail polish thinner that I used on the white nail polish after I had completed my manicure.
