"Mary Mary quite contrary,
We get bored so we get married
And just like dust we settle in this town.
On this broken merry go 'round and 'round and 'round we go,
Where it stops nobody knows...
And it ain't slowin' down, this merry go 'round..."
For this manicure I started out with a base of Pipe Dream Polish Pink Elephants and Lemonade. I then added self made decals, painted the tips using Maybelline Bold Gold (70) and added dots of acrylic paint to match each unicorn.
For the decals I first stamped the horse from Mash plate Mash-42 using Essence Stamp Me! White. I then added the details using Maybelline Bold Gold and acrylic paints...
I am so excited for how this manicure turned out. It is just as I pictured it in my head...
Pink Elephants and Lemonade is a teal crelly base with pink and yellow glitter. This polish is just so gorgeous. I love the combination of colors. It applies easily with nice distribution of glitter. A lot of the larger hex glitter seems to have settled on one side of the bottle so I will be storing it upside down for a while to bring that back up for next time. I used three coats for these swatches although it was opaque at just two coats. Swatches are with a top coat...
