Indie meets indie sandwich - Artsy Wednesday

 
 
This weeks theme in Artsy Wednesday is a jelly sandwich.

The base color is a pretty green from Pirate Polish Poison Apple and the pretty glitter is from our first and very talented Danish indie polish maker Well Nails Did You Just Mosbe me? To create the sandwich I chose a shimmer because I only have a few jellies and they are dark, so I guess this is a shimmelly sandwich ;) It’s the super sheer and very shimmery light green L.A. Colors Green Tea. Finally I wanted to mattify it with Essie matte About You – and even after 2 coats the shimmer still stood out. I felt it was a bit too busy for nail art – so are rare sight, my nails without nail art....

    1. The "real" way is to use one coat of a jelly polish, let it dry, add a coat of glitter and when dry add the same jelly again.
      But I used a colored base, a glitter and a sheer polish...
      Hope that helped?
