Hello there lovely readers! Hope you're
all having a good weekend!
Warning...the following manicure may
incur hunger pangs & ice cream cravings...or maybe that was just the case with me.
You see, food brings me a lot of joy...so does nail
polish...& when those two glorious things mix well then I'm
pretty much in heaven. Which brings me to today's mani I have to
share with you...some mint choc chip nails with dripping chocolate
sauce!
Excuse me while I have my obligatory
Homer Simpson moment...*mmmm ice cream* Ahem! Sorry, what can I say?
I like my food & this just seriously had me craving a nice cool
ice cream cone covered in sauce!
For this mani I dug out Models Own
Magpie Green from their Speckled Eggs collection (RRP £5) of which I
naturally grabbed a few, especially considering their fab dupe like
quality of the more pricier Illamasqua ones! This particular shade in
the collection is a beautiful pastel mint green crème with black
glitter of different sizes giving the 'speckled' effect. Here I've
applied two coats.
Next for the dripping chocolate sauce
which got me far more excited than it would a normal sane person, I
excitingly reached for one of my Revlon Parfumerie polishes (RRP
£6.49) I recently picked up when Boots had their 3 for 2. I've been
wanting to try these scented polishes for yonks & spent ages
deciding which ones to get! This one was naturally a
given....Chocolate Truffle...
And yes...this polish...when
dry...smells just like CHOCOLATE. *dies* So it was of course perfect
for my sweet themed mani here. Using a dotting tool I dotted on 3
drops on the nail before joining & blending on to the tips to
create a dripping effect...not entirely happy with how it came out
but hey practice makes perfect & I'll definitely be trying
dripping nails again!
Finishing with a coat of topcoat &
that's it, yummy nails good to go that you can inhale to your hearts
content without fear of becoming delusional or passing out! Hurrah!
Hope you liked the mani dolls, thanks for reading!
Lotsa love to ya!
These look good enough to eat! They look stunning!
