I didn’t know what a kitchen sink mani was before I joined this
challenge. I had to ask and apparently it’s a mani where most (if not all)
nails are different. I like the idea but it took me a while to figure out what I
actually wanted to do. I still wanted it to be harmonic, so I chose three
colours that I thought would go well together; three polishes from Golden
Rose’s Rich Color collection: #39, a turquoise shimmer, #42, a violet shimmer,
and #51, which is a lovely magenta shimmer.
Here’s how my kitchen sink mani turned out:
On my pointer I have the violet as my base, and have dotted with the two
other colours.
On my middle finger it’s magenta with turquoise stripes.
On my ring finger I made a gradient with the violet and the turquoise
and hand painted a little heart with the magenta on it.
The pinkie has a turquoise base, and a flower painted with the magenta
and the violet.
I’m not totally satisfied with the flower, but I love the mani as a
whole! This last picture shows the mani with flash:
The polishes I used:
I’m quite happy with this, and will definitely try and make more kitchen
sink manis in future.
How about you, have you tried to make a kitchen sink mani?
The challenge next week is Lines.
I’m looking forward to come up with something for that.

Hahaha - I never even heard that expression either - but it's a fun idea and pretty mani!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to do it again - I like that they're not all the same :)
DeleteI've never heard about the kitchen sink mani, it sound hilarious! But I love what you made for this theme, the polish colors go very well together.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one that hasn't heard of it before :D And thank you, I'm pleased :)
DeleteNo idea what kitchen mani is but I like the GR you used and a cheerful result :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, I thought those three GRs would go really well together :)
DeleteI didn't know there is a mani with that name. But good to know! :) You created a lovely and sweet mani!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much :)
DeleteVery pretty :)
ReplyDeleteThank you :)
DeleteI've got a horrible suspicion that a kitchen sink mani is an Aussie expression A because I've heard of it and B because it reminds me of the expression that you've packed everything but the kitchen sink, meaning you've packed everything you could possibly thought of. I think you did a pretty cool kitchen sink mani. My favorite is the index finger.
ReplyDeleteHa, thank you so much for explaining that, I always like learning new things and expressions :)
DeleteThis mani looks very beautiful! ;) Love the GR polishes!
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I do too :)
DeleteGorgeous mani and I love the colours you've used. :-)
