I have two sets of St. Patrick's Day nails for you today! I don't know about you, but sometimes if I just like a polish, the name will send me into purchase land! And that's what happened with the polish I have featured in both my manicures today...I'm a 90's kid who didn't have cable growing up, and we watched mostly sitcoms on ABC, CBS, and NBC. One of the shows we watched was The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. When I saw this, I HAD to have it. The name just made me giggle, and immediately "Iiiiiinnnn West Philadelphia born and raised..." started through my head hehehe!
So, here is my first manicure, two coats of Zoya Angella under two coats of OPI The Fresh Frog of Bel Air from their Muppets collection! Hehehe just typing the name makes me giggle! With this one, I wanted a shimmery base for Fresh Frog because it is a sheer green glitter topper. Zoya Angella is a very ethereal shimmer that worked perfect for this!
I loved how these turned out. But in my haste to get them done I didn't allow for proper drying time and I smudged two nails clean off with a visit to the lady's room. Which is why I have two manicures today!
For my second manicure I decided not to go so green! I bought SinfulShine Mardi Gras just today and it's an awesome orange coral I really wanted to use. So, I did two coats of Mardi Gras then when it was dry I striped with metallic green striping tape on my pinky, middle, and index fingers, then used Fresh Frog on my thumb and ring fingers. I actually really love this look, so maybe the fail on the first one was meant to be!!
Which is your fave?
You are too funny. I read that and starting singing the theme song too. It reminds me of friday nights and only tv station we had was dallas and falcon crest back in the 80's... Great job
ReplyDeleteI didn't have cable growing up, either! Fresh Prince was a staple for me! I definitely like the second mani better, but then again, I am a sucker for striping tape! <3
