I am obsessed with skittle manicures. I started off by painting on three coats of Essie Man Squeeze. It's a really pretty off-white/blue duochrome polish, but it's so sheer! After that, I painted the index finger with two coats of China Glaze Cosmic Dust from the new Hologlam collection. These are such a letdown. So streaky and not that holographic... For the middle finger, I applied two coats of Cirque Tibetan Nights. That was definitely my favorite of the three untrieds. Tibetan nights is a bright blue jelly with light blue and silver bar glitter. I usually detest bar glitter, but the pieces in this polish are cut in half and are just the right size! How this remained untried before today, I just don't know. For the ring finger, I used the PUEEN24 stamping plate to add stars using Cosmic Dust. Finally, I used a sponge to gradient Tibetan Nights over Man Squeeze on the pinky finger.

I've never heard of a skittle manicure before. I love that Cirque polish too! It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteIt's when all your nails have different designs/polishes on them (I think, that's how I've been using it...) And yes Tibetan Nights is so lovely!
DeleteThis is a cute idea, I love the Cirque Tibetan Nights! It looks so good.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favorite polishes now! Such a wonderful idea.
DeleteI adore that Cirque polish. I always look at their polishes and then hem and haw when it comes to the price. Maybe I'll get one as a birthday present to myself in June.
ReplyDeleteI know the prices are steep, but trust me, they're worth it!
DeleteAw happy birthday your mom! :D
ReplyDeleteYour mani looks awesome! Skittle manis are always fun!
Thanks Traci! I am addicted.
