I finally did it. I used the traditional rainbow color scheme on my nails! I think this is the first time in, well, ever I’ve done this! And I am going to be perfectly honest with you…I don’t like it…

This was the day of the month I least looked forward to. I love colors, neons, clashes etc. but when it comes to the ROYGBIV array I cannot get on board. I watched Robin Moses’ splatter paint technique (linked here) and immediately gave it a try. I could not think of anything else (except maybe dashes) for this prompt.

What do you think? I personally don’t like it but that’s my personal color preference. I think I should have gone with one or two colors – in different shades. I almost did not even want to post this but…

I wanted to do a green manicure given it are opposite red on the color wheel. Everyone did dark, vampy heartbreaks for the Anti-Valentine’s prompt and I wanted to explore the opposite direction. But, I didn’t want to sugarspin greens so I jumped on the bandwagon and stayed with the similar.

I wanted to stamp hearts on top of the blood splatter but I kind of really liked the splatter on it’s own! I hope you like it.

 

Sugarspun and Splatter Manicure | The Rite of AgingI started with 2 coats of Barry M Gelly Chai as my base.

I sugar spun with OPI Lincoln Park After Dark and Zoya Anais.

I splattered with Sephora by OPI Mr. Right Now.
