Yellow Ombre Manicure

Happy Yellow day...no actually it is National Hot Dog Day today, and what's the best condiment on top of a hot dog?...MUSTARD! Well, at least that's what I like on it :)

So in honor of this day, I give you a yellow ombre manicure!

Thumb to Pinkie:

Ilamasqua "Scorch"
China Glaze "Lemon Fizz"
China Glaze "Happy Go Lucky"
Barielle "Lemon Drops"
Essence "Sundancer"

I tried to find a super light yellow creme in my stash that would have worked instead of the white thumb, but.... no dice! I thought Sally Hansen "Yellow Kitty" would work, but it was not light enough.

Here are all of my yellow creme colors, that I swatched to find the right shades...

As is typical of most yellow polishes, these required 3 coats to be perfectly opaque, with no bald spots!

Happy National Hot Dog Day!

Keep it Sweet!...your life...not the hot dog, LOL! :)

Teal Ombre Nail Manicure

Here is a sweet little diddy I wore last week.

I took an empty nail wheel and swatched a bunch of teal cremes, in order to see which colors looked "in harmony" with one another, and these were the winners!

Left to Right: China Glaze "Re-Fresh Mint, Catrice "Am I Blue Or Green?", China Glaze "Aquadelic", Zoya "Wednesday", OPI "Mermaid's Tears".

Left to Right (Thumb to Pinkie): China Glaze "Re-Fresh Mint, Catrice "Am I Blue Or Green?", China Glaze "Aquadelic", Zoya "Wednesday", OPI "Mermaid's Tears".

I like how this ombre goes from "minty green" to "teal blue", and then to a more subdued teal. Fun!

 

Thanks for checking out my ombre, Keep It Sweet!
