The Luck of the Irish

Hello my ladies and welcome to today's edition of seasonably inappropriate nail lacquers!!!


I made this one on a whim and only noticed once it was finished how utterly... Irish... this one seemed to be. I started out with about half a bottle of TKB Luster base. I then added about a quarter of a bottle's worth of a LA Colors green cream that I found in a nameless set at Ross. Photos of this green can be found in this blog post from Lively Lacquer. Next, I added a couple scoops of Disco Mix! from Glitter Unique, which is a mix of multiple sizes of squares and hexes in both holo gold and holo silver. Finally, I added one small scoop of TKB gold sparks to make the base shimmer. I danced a little Irish jig and created this beauty!

Mmmmmmmmhmmmmm... I love me some macro






 Formula was incredibly easy and self leveled like a champ. I didn't need to place any glitters and swatches show 3 coats. How awesome is it that you can see the glitters peek out and shine from all the glorious coats? I definitely created this one about 3 months too late though, because this polish is just MADE for St. Patrick's Day.

Well that's all for this simple polish! I can't wait to show you what I have in store for you on Friday, which will be my first installment in my Stump the Femme posts! Those of you following me on Facebook may already know what I am talking about ;) So my lovelies, see you next time. Until then, remember to keep it classy and creative!

    1. Thank you! And I'm glad you think so, when I saw the color I was pretty much like, "Duh, where were you 3 months ago?". So it's good to hear there's still hope!
