Lemonade?

After my let down with Illa Raindrops I had the urge to make some raindrops of my own. I was really happy with the way they turned out. I may make more colors! They look like an icy lemonade :) That's exactly what I named it.


I then decided to stamp over it using Illamasqua Force and Dashica SdP8. I liked it better without the stamp. Oh well, you win some you lose some :)

Have a great day! 

Galaxy nails

I have long admired the Galaxy nails seen everywhere. My particular favorite are the blue ones at Coewless. I finally decided to attempt them!


I decided to make them drip, in reverse. Easy enough... Maybe I will attempt the other way some other time.


I used the following polishes:
A base of Orly Haley's Comet, sponged on Ulta Whatever Floats your Moat with lots of Orly Lunar Eclipse. I went back in with China Glaze Custom Kicks and Four Leaf Clover. Then highlighted those areas with Essie Mint Candy Apple and Zoya Tangy. Then I splattered with a bit of white acrylic paint, just a touch. I stamped some stars that I isolated from Cheeky 46. I used Sally Hansen CSM Lavendar Cloud for the drips.

Here are all the colors I used. I used these self locking tweezers to hold a tiny piece of sponge for each color.


This is Orly Haley's Comet. I love it :)
 Do you like this better without the drips? I think I might. I'm undecided.
Have a great day!
