My first Skittlette!
Hello, Fireflies!
This month, the NCC challenge theme is the Skittle. According to ChitChatNails, there are several formulas for a skittlette, of which I chose the most common - Creme, Creme, Stamp, Stamp, Glitter. I figured, since it was my first one, I should take it slow and steady.
I used Ulta Whatever Floats Your Moat, a blue jelly; OPI I Have A Herring Problem, a grey-blue with silver shimmer; and Liquid Lacquer A Calm Does Not Suit Me, a milky white base with blue and purple glitters.
I used Revlon Spirit and Dashika Big SdP-L to make this pattern over the OPI.
And, for the pièce de résistance, I chose some grey-blue rhinestones and placed them in my Nail Veil, which I then attached to my thumb with some topcoat.
I love that I can color-coordinate my Nail Veil!

I'm not sure how I feel about skittlettes - or even skittles - but I love nail jewelry. What say y'all?

Fun skittle! Love the thumb with the stud you added.
ReplyDeletefun! the little metal flower thing looks cool
ReplyDeleteThat's the Nail Veil - it's real, reusable jewelry. I can put whatever stones I want in it, and it can be cleaned with acetone. It's really pretty sturdy.
DeleteThis is so fun - I love the little metal addition you have and the stamping. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteOkay, this is my new favorite from you. I'm doomed, I can't even make stamping look decent. *throws tantrums*
