Golden Oldie Thursday - Green


Hi all!

Today's challenge is all about green. And it happens that two of my favourite green polishes are more than a year old! Yay! I bought them somewhere in 2012 I think. Neither of these is available anymore, they got purged from Catrice's core collection ages ago.


The polishes I used, from left to right:
  • Catrice - 810 ACid DC
  • Catrice - 740 King Of Greens
  • Rimmel - 800 Black Out

The name of ACid DC inspired me to do some poisonous drippy like nails. The Acid part of the name, not the hint to AC DC *winks*.



I am wearing 2 coats of each polish as a base. On my thumb and ring finger I freehanded warning symbols with a small brush and Black Out. I was so tempted to grab my Barry M nail art pen, but it's not older than a year, so I couldn't. On my ring finger I have a normal warning sign, but on my thumb a radioactive sign.  Okay, so acid is not radioactive, but hey, the acid warning symbol is a lot harder to draw! Besides, this green nearly glows and radioactive stuff in cartoons glows. End of logic.



On the other nails I did drippy patterns of ACid DC oozing over King Of Greens. I think these are my first drippy nails, but I felt it was necessary with these polishes *nods*.


And the Cinderella hand! I kept it a bit simpler here, because I am right handed and my freehanding skills are nearly non-existant for my left hand.


I hope you liked these "dangerous" nails! FYI, this blogpost is not contaminated, you won't grow an extra hand now you've read this.

6th Feb - Green


Open 30 January - 13th February!



A reminder of the rules :

* the polish you use should be at least one year old

* if you haven't been a polishaholic that long, you can use the oldest polishes you have

* the polish should be previously used, but if you're stuck, you could free a yearling from Mount Untried (seriously, some of mine are reaching puberty out there)

* you can use more than 1 polish as long as it fits the theme and the rules
