FingerFood’s Themed Weeks: Delicious

FingerFood theme, freeh, Milani, Nail Art, Serum No 5, sugar-spun

I will never say no to an over-flowing bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream. Since I am craving it like mad it was the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw this week’s prompt.

…I added sugar-spun, because, well, ice cream has sugar? Do I need an excuse to use this technique??

I love how the brown dried, it really reminds me of chocolate chips/chocolate sauce.

I rarely show my thumb on the blog but I love the drizzle so I decided to include a picture.

ImageI used 2 coats Milani Mint Chip, 1 coat Milani Sugar High and 1 coat Serum No 5 Happy Special Day! as my base. (I realized if I had used my black and white Milani glitter I would have had a complete GOT manicure, but I was feeling something more colorful)

I drizzled with Milani Dark Coffee.

FingerFood theme, Milani, Nail Art, Sinful Colors, Wet n Wild, Zoya

I hope you like my blues! I am really loving the Sinful Colors glitter topper!! …And how great these colors look together!

 

ImageI used two coats of Milani Peacock as my base.

I striped with Wet n Wild Blue Moon and nimbus-ed lightly with Zoya Dream before adding a coat of Seche Vite to protect it.

I finished with one coat of Sinful Colors Nail Junkie.

Can I have a thing? I love Sugar-Spun and Picasso Swirl…okay, two things. I love these techniques and I always love the outcomes!

For this week’s FingerFood Theme (freestyle) I tried a plaid/criss-cross sugar-spin…I also experimented with mixing the colors together…I hope you like it!

I sugar-spun with Deborah Lippman’s Wicked Collection Defying Gravity and Sinful Colors All About You.
