Smitten ~ Peppermint Patty

Smitten ~ Peppermint Patty

Pale mint green jelly with silver holo microglitter

Today I’m going to show you a mani that pushed me a little bit outside my comfort zone. Peppermint Patty is a store exclusive for Rainbow Connection in the UK. I don’t usually wear mints, but hey, today is that day.

The formula is really good and easy to work with. I was surprised that it covered in two coats and the drying time was fast.

Here’s two coats and a thin layer of topcoat in the sunshine:

Here’s a picture taken with flash in my lightbox:

Here’s the mandatory low light picture.

So, I stamped and dotted on it. First I stamped my pinkie and my pointer with white dots. Then I dotted the bigger white dots with another Smitten polish: Penny Dreadful.

I stamped the other three nails with another motif from the same stamping plate, which is DRK-A. I sealed the whole thing up with another layer of topcoat, and here’s my final mani:

I love how this intentionally blurred picture shows off the blinginess of the polishes!

See? I told you that these colours were outside my comfort zone.

Number of coats: 2
Drying time: Good

Finish: Jelly with microglitter

Overall impression: I love the bling.  

Buy again: Yes, but mostly because it’s a store exclusive, haha
