Candy Corn Crackle

Today I've got another
simple but very festive mani, 
Candy Corn Crackle!




 I started with a White base, using Sinful Colors Snow Me White

Then I did a sponge gradient of Orange & Yellow 1/3 way down 
the nail to create me candy corn. 
I used a cosmetic sponge with Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear in
Sun Kissed and Mellow Yellow.

Once the gradient was dry, I applied a single layer of 
Barry M.'s Instant Nail Effects crackle polish in Black.

I topped it off with 1 coat of Gelous top coat, 
followed by Out The Door top coat, 
because the crackle really does soak up alot of top coat. 
I could probably even have used a 2nd coat.




 I know most are over the crackle look, 
but I still really love my crackles and I loved the thought of using some for Halloween!

Spring Green Gradient

There is something so refreshing about Green nail polish,
I don't know what it is, but I've got more Greens
in my collection than any other shade. 

He is a super Springy Green gradient that 
I'm currently wearing & absolutely loving.




I used 3 different shades:

Sinful Colors in Innocent as the base
Then used a combo of
Maybelline Express Finish in Go-Getter Green
and
ORLY in Fresh
to create the gradient
