I'm behind on posting - I actually did these before classes started last week! They didn't last long, so I didn't get any better photos, unfortunately. Let me tell you about them.
So this is a new polish - I think it is thermal, but it's nothing aside from hot here, so I never saw it change. I do wash my hands (often, actually), but I think that I was so fixated on school starting that I didn't pay much attention to them while they were on.
So I'm digging the pink - it's a great shade. The rainbow shards you see, unfortunately, were done with nail foils. Beautiful, finicky nail foils. LOL I tried several different topcoats to see which wouldn't dull the effect, but only the crappy water-based one worked and that's just not enough to keep them on for long. 🙁
I threw a thin, metal unicorn on there because obviously rainbows and unicorns and pink are a winning combo. I really loved the way these looked, but alas, they were chipping off by the next day. I picked at them all week because nerves (terrible, horrible thing to do to your nails, btw), then FINALLY took off the remaining shards last night. Now my nails are just naked and I have a Calculus test tomorrow, so they will remain bare for now. 🙁
I'm hoping this semester allows me at least SOME time to play with my nail art goodies, but that remains to be seen. If I do manage to have time to paint, y'all will be the first to know! 🙂
