With that said, today's mani features a pastel green creme from Revlon called Minted. From what I know, Revlon also has a quick dry version with a silver cap called Jaded. Both are supposedly comparable to China Glaze's Refresh Mint from the Up and Away Collection. All three are really pretty! For the pattern, I actually used a matte and shiny stripe pattern using scotch tape. Scroll forth, dear reader!
Can you see the stripes? =D It's only one color!
Couldn't get the exact lighting I wanted so here are mutiple pics
So pretty in the sun!
As you can see, the pattern is really subtle but it still gives your nails a special finish! I really like it... it's a great way to spice up any color without being too over the top. It's also a nice way to get into nail art if you're not quite sure you want to be too bold yet. Hopefully this kick starts some ideas for you guys out there. Have a great Friday everyone! The weekend is *just* around the corner. =D
That looks really cool, great idea to do matte and shiny stripes!
ReplyDeleteI would just like to add that I love the shape and length of your nails! :)
@Tanja - Hehe, thank you! The idea came to me at night when I was trying to fall asleep =P
ReplyDeleteYou have patience girl! That pattern is cool.
ReplyDeleteI didnt like the formula of China Glaze's Refresh Mint.
@Nadia - Haha, actually the pattern was really easy to do. The only part that was kind of a pain was when I had to cut up the tape. I think formulas for this color all are a little finicky huh? This one looked like it bubbled a bit even though I let the polish settle well before applying. A top coat easily fixed that though.
ReplyDeleteThat is just to cool, lovely nails!
ReplyDelete@MorePolishPlz - Thanks so much!
