Did someone say opal nails?

Inspired by a recent post here and a September polish pickup order. Trying my best to emulate opal! The hardest was getting green and red random flashes. I did like 6 prototypes to get to this!

They're not perfect but I won't be wearing this set anyway because I knocked them on the floor on accident before they dried 😭

Base: Orly bonder

2 layers KB Shimmer Ghosted (provides the milky white and some glitter)

1 layer holo taco lunar unicorn skin (provides some red and green glitter flash)

2 layers holo taco glossy taco

1 layer Orly bonder, let dry

1 layer FNNZ chrome powder in Sunset Glow (provides depth and a red orange shine)

1 layer Elmer's clear washable glue, let dry fully (locks in the chrome)

1 layer Sally Hansen miracle gel top coat (prevents chipping)
