Sponge Mani using Claire's Evergreen, Emerald City and Finger Paints Tough Art To Follow


Here is another quick sponge mani I have worn all weekend.... I desperately wanted to copy THIS rainbow nails mani that Polish Infatuated posted a few days ago, but my base was too dark and the colours I chose didn't show up...... Here is the Original post and tutorial=

♥♥♥ Thank-you everyone for adding your blog ♥♥♥

For this mani, I started with 2 coats of Claire's Evergreen, then sponged on Claire's Emerald City diagonally across the center of my nails, then sponged on Finger Paints Tough Art to Follow diagonally across the tips of my nails, I went over this area twice with the sponging, and even filled in some sparse areas with polish straight from the brush to smooth out any lumpy/bumpy spots.

The base polish I used is visible in some areas, I half-*ssed this mani when I could not get the 'rainbow-sponge' to work out like I planned - it still looked cool though and I wore it all weekend♥

    Love all your manicure's. Now that they're featured in green I love them even more. Greens are my favorite and I'm thrilled I have so many shades to choose from.
