Modern and Mermaid Manicures!

I've been experimenting with a few of my green nail polishes the past couple of days. I tried out a sleek and modern muted look with triangles on my friend Vanessa last night.

I used a light gray sephora mini polish as the base, and made the triangles with Deborah Lippmann's Almost Paradise and Illamasqua's Milf.
I really like the way it turned out. It's pretty subtle from far away, but exciting and pretty up close.
I went in the opposite direction with my nails. They are intense.
I've been wanting to try out Deborah Lippmann's Mermaid's Dream and finally went for it. It reminds me of mermaids, of course, but it also brought to mind peacock feathers.
I played it up with some Revlon gold franken (gold coin mixed half and half with golden makes the perfect gold) half-moons with Illamasqua and Revlon's golden dots on top.

I just got some new dotting tools in the mail. Got em on ebay for like 49 cents! It was a pretty good deal.
I'm gonna get out and enjoy the beautiful weather!
