Rainbows and Ice Cream: Skittles Nails - An IG Collaboration

I did some matching quadruplet nails with a few other girls on Instagram!

Our color scheme was rainbow, with the theme of ice cream, and we did a sort of skittles look: one nail a marble, one a gradient, one glitter, and the fourth finger and your thumb however you wanted.

So I used a lot of stuff for this mani!







On my thumb and pinkie I put Lush Lacquer Clowning Around over Tea Beauty Vanilla Petals. The gradient on my index and ring fingers is made up of China Glaze Wicked Style (pink), Julep Daisy (yellow), Essie Mesmerize (blue), China Glaze Grape Pop (purple), and Julep Lily (fuchsia). On my index finger, I taped some spaces off and put Vanilla Petals on top. On my ring finger, the ice cream cone is done with Vanilla Petals and striped with a mix of Vanilla Petals and China Glaze Mahogany Magic. The strawberry ice crea is a swirl of L.A. Girl Love Notes and China Glaze Wicked Style. Lastly, on my middle finger, I did a plastic wrap marble with all of the same colors I used in my gradients, plus Revlon Posh (green) and Julep Nina (orange).

So that's that! I don't blame you if you just skipped over that whole mess!
