Neon Splatter Mani with Cirque Polish Electric Circus

This manicure was one of effort and so messy and I'm not sure I will ever splatter mani again! I also tried a FULL nail wheel of combos to put Electric Circus over...then chose white. Talk about frustrating.

I started with two coats of my go to white shimmer, Orly Au Champagne. I used one coat of Cirque Polish Electric Circus over my ring and thumb. Using the colors of the glitters, I decided to splatter mani. I used China Glaze Surfing for Boys, Wet N Wild Nerd Alert: Screech, and Color Club Wicked Sweet (which is awfully scented, but I love the color).

Here's the thing: DO NOT CUT YOUR STRAWS IN HALF. I figured I would be "green" but cutting my straws in half...well, I ended up getting nail polish all over my hands and face and you can see the wear of this mani on my thumb. I was literally cleaning this mani for days! I do love the outcome but oh man, I will need to try a splatter mani on a day I feel more patient. I then used one coat of IMN Northern Lights over the splattered nails.
