Leprechaun in a Blender

I finally ordered from Steel City Reflections the other week and while I don't usually go for this shade of green, I loved the look of this crelly with superfine gold glitter, small green square glitter and larger gold circular glitter. Tonja was kind enough to throw in the LE edition she had created for our Canuck swap (I couldn't make a purchase since I was actually shopping for her!) so I am excited to test that one out too. (It's called snow babes - very Canadian!)


Products Used
Steel City Reflections Leprechaun in a Blender
Sally Hansen Lime Green Striper
China Glaze Fast Forward


I just did some simple accent nails with the striper. I am not really a fan of the brush in the striper bottle, it's too thick (the end does not have a fine point) and the polish kept dripping down and blobbing on my nail. Good thing I got it for super cheap at Target! 


Will you be drinking green beer on Tuesday?

St. Patricks Waterfall for #TGIF

Today marks week two of the #TGIFnailartchallenge and very excitingly, someone else besides me played along this week! :-D The theme is waterfall, so I decided to bust out some of my greens that don't get used very often in celebration of St. Patricks day - which is getting very close!


Products Used
Zoya Chantal
Sally Hansen Striper Lime Green
Beyond the Nail (Unnamed)
China Glaze Be More Pacific
China Glaze I'm With the Lifeguard
China Glaze Fast Forward
Striper Brush eBay
Dotting Tool Amazon


I used a dotting tool to create the shamrock leaves, drawing 3 hearts and then adding on the stem with the brush. The paler greens don't really pop against the nude base (which is gorgeous,btw) but they are there IRL! 


Do you go all out for St. Paddys?
