Yellow! Such a divisive hue among us nail bloggers... For some, a summery, sunshiney hue that brings images of bright cocktails and ripe fruit; for others, however, it invokes images of stained nailbeds or gives us the dreaded lobster hands! I personally like yellow nail polish (usually), though until recently, I had only one sad, lonely yellow in my collection. I now own... wait for it... three! Yes, three. I only used two for this mani though!
This was a fun one! I had a couple of ideas, but none of them were very original, and one I had
already done on my blog before! Ultimately, this is what I came up with:
Eggs and bacon! I hope that you can tell what it is, lol. I am a big lover of eggs, and though I rarely buy bacon due to the price and fattiness, it is indeed delicious! For this manicure, I used a base of Revlon Colorstay Buttercup (I have green gel underneath, which is peeking out around the edges, because I failed to cover it up properly. Womp womp.). I painted the egg whites with China Glaze White On White, and used a large dotting tool to paint the egg yolks with Julie G Canary Islands. I used L'Oreal Mauvelous to paint on the bacon strips, and then painted little lines on the bacon using Pure Ice En Vogue and OPI My Vampire is Buff with an ultra fine tipped nail art brush. Finally, I used black acrylic paint to outline everything with an ultra fine tipped nail art brush, and topped the whole thing with Salon Perfect Top Coat!
