Flip Flop #24: Rainbow

So I had this amaaaazing idea of doing a rainbow across all my nails, with a pot of gold at the end.  It would've been epic.

However, time is something I seem to be constantly lacking recently.  Plus I couldn't bring myself to spend all that time doing it only to have to take it off for work in the morning (Although apparently my nails have been noticed...they were discussing in a meeting possible jobs I could do, and one suggestion was something involving drains and yuckiness - as if that's happening - and one of the women just said 'Have you seen Sam's nails? I don't think she'll want to do that..').

So anyway, I did these super lazy rainbow nails instead.  Sorry.  All of my manicures have been a bit poo lately.  To be honest, I'm looking forward to the challenge being over so I can go at my own pace a bit more.  If I ever say I'm going to do a month long challenge again, please stop me.

From left to right, I used Barry M Bright Red, Max Factor Bright Orange, Barry M Lemon Ice Cream, Max Factor Cactus Green, Barry M Spring Green, China Glaze Man Hunt, OPI Roadhouse Blues and Barry M Vivid Purple.  Phew!

I really love my middle finger :)  My index finger didn't photograph very well did it?  You can't even see the red!  I like the ring finger as well, although it's very subtle.  Maybe it would've been good with a little green on that nail as well?  Oh and apologies for the tipwear, I decided it was a good idea to do dishes (must be coming down with something).

  2. I had pretty much everything done ahead of time, except these last two days, and I really feel for y'all who are doing it in real time. Such pressure! It didn't hurt at all having them done ahead. If you decide to do another, try it that way.

    1. I did try...but I was basically doing all my manicures for the week ahead at the weekend so that I could actually take pictures in daylight. Then I went to visit my parents for a weekend and it all went to pot lol.
