So I have been conspicuously absent recently, and this will probably continue for another week and a half/two weeks. You see, my family and I are moving shortly, and packing up our house is a busy, busy process. Also I am still kind of in denial because I love my childhood home and moving is stupid.
BUT ANYWAY, enough of my wet-blanket-ness. As you saw, Kas and I love Pride, and we attended two Prides this year. In NYC I didn't do anything too exciting with my nails as they needed a bit of TLC. So I waited til Toronto to really have fun with them.
I started with my favourite disco-ball sparkle nails: one thin coat of OPI Lucerne-tainly Look Marvellous with another coat of OPI Crown Me Already, but this time to add a bit of rainbow sparkle with a thin coat of Wet N Wild Kaleidoscope.
After that, I took a thin brush and used it to write HAPPY on my left hand and PRIDE on my right. I blended the colours in each letter a little(though not as much as I would've liked, but hey, first shot) so I could have a fuller rainbow and not leave anything out.
For the lettering I used: Essie Too Too Hot, Finger Paints Outta Sight Orange, Kleancolor Neon Yellow, China Glaze I'm With The Lifeguard, OPI Dating a Royal, and Urban Outfitters Bandeau.
So what do you guys think? Did any of you do Pride nails?
I did a rainbow gradient waaay before pride and I didn't have time to do anything special when pride came around. :/ just did some blue sally hansen. These look really cool though! And you can stretch your thumbs really far! lol
