"Poison Ivy"

Hey there, just wanted to quick post my new acrylic set. The base is clear glitter acrylic and the rest is sparkly, shiny, and sexy!





Products Used: (green nail)
Natural acrylic tips
Clear acrylic mixed with iridescent glitter
Sally Hansen Xtreme 340 Mint Sorbet (pastel green)
Sally Hansen Xtreme 17 Ivy League (light metallic green)
L.A. Colors Color Craze (dark metallic green)
Sally Hansen Xtreme 300 White On
Sally Hansen Xtreme 220 Celeb Only
Small (2mm) rhinestones
Green and Purple confetti stars (4mm)

Method Used:
Coat 1: Apply glitter acrylic to nails, cure, file, and buff.
Coat 2: Sponge a gradient on tips using light, medium, and dark shades of the same color (green)
Coat 3: Use a flat square brush to dip 1/2 the width in white paint, and the other 1/2 in silver. Paint silver flowers with white centers. 
Coat 4: Glue rhinestones in the centers of the flowers
Coat 5: Glue Stars randomly. 

I asked my boyfriend what I should paint and he said, "purple" and this is what I came up with. Thanks Joey! ^_^
