Citrus blast

Oh, such a fun one this time!

This is the mani I did last night, inspired by this one at the Nail Polish Wars.  The orange and yellow polishes I have are brighter, and I didn't do the glitter, but what a great look!

My version is two coats of Zoya Darcy and Finger Paints Tangerine Tint, on alternate fingers, topped with Seche Vite, then stamped with Sinful Colors Snow Me White and the Bundle Monster BM-308 plate.  Topped with a final coat of Seche Vite.

Both these polishes were a little streaky and runny, and I had to be really careful when painting.  The Zoya in particular seemed to really want to flood my cuticles.  But, a little acetone on a brush and it's all good!  Although now that I see these closeup pictures, it looks like I still could have done a little better job....

I love this look- next time I think I'm going to add a paler orange, a green, and a pinky-salmon. Then I'll have lemons, limes, oranges, tangerines, and grapefruits!
