Valentines Day (Sort Of) Themed Skittles Nail Art

Hey everyone, I know I am kind of late on the train to posting these but I figured I would paint my nails for Valentines Day anyway even through I am kind of a Scrooge about the whole thing. Kind of. I can be romantic... When I want to be... I think. Anyway I was contemplating for probably close to 30 minutes on what to do! I guess this is what happens when you have too much polish? I knew I wanted to revisit Rainbow Honey's first limited edition polishes for the month of February last year - Dearly Beloved. This was even back then when they had sticker labels instead of the nice sleek screen printed ones they have now. *sniff* They grow up so fast!

Anyway I wanted to center the focus on Rainbow Honey Dearly Beloved. There was a part of me that wanted to open up Sweet Talk: Part 2 but I guess with the broken nails, I was too grumpy to do it! But nonetheless, I used OPI Black Onyx, Fancy by Rainbow Honey Fancy Red, Rainbow Honey Gilded Angel and Rainbow Honey Dearly Beloved, of course. I think it turned out well! I wanted it to be fun, but not too crazy or distracting. Here's what I came up with:

And because it's Valentines Day and everyone needs a little love, including my Cinderella hand... My claddagh ring, straight out of Ireland makes an appearance too:

I know most of you had long weekends so I hope you guys all had a nice long weekend! I am jealous! Haha, I want a long weekend! (Even though I totally just had one last week, but you can never have enough 4 day work weeks, right?) I just shot the PIXIES last night so that was SUPER exciting for me as a huge fan. What did you guys get up to for the long weekend? Any fun nail art you did for Val/Galentines Day?

  1. No long weekend for me cause it's a provincial thing and I'm Federal Government, but oh well. I'm still working from home cause of the mouse poop thing (we're moving to a new building soon) so I really can't complain.

    I love your nails! The colours go great together and Dearly Beloved brings them all together even more. Perfect! Lil' Peanut agrees too, she's been kicking the entire time I've been reading your post. :D

    1. I saw the mouse poop fiasco! I am glad you're getting out there. That's just... unpleasant.

      Heehee, man being kicked from inside must be such an interesting experience! I can't even imagine, haha! :D

    1. Haha it's the index and thumbnail! But my pinky nail broke last week. Figures right when the others are a good length now, huh! Boo.

      Glad NS is hopping on it. BC was long due for a stat in February!
