Confetti Nails

This manicure turned out pretty well considering I didn't have much expectations for it. I had my mind set on doing a dotted type nail theme of some sort. I tossed and turned between all these different ideas and patterns (most of them out of my skill level as usual). In the end, I decided to do something simple but with high impact. I call it Confetti, but it did also remind me of my beloved childhood party food Fairy Bread.

Including the base coat it was 9 different colour polishes in total using bobby pins. I probably should have taken a photo off all the different polishes I used but I forgot. If anyone is desperate enough I can recall them, but honesty I would use a different colour pallet. The base colour was OPI Alpine Snow and the colours were a variety of OPI, China Glaze and Ulta 3. Even looking up close though you could tell the difference between the quality of the polishes even via mere dots. The lesser chemist store brand of Ulta 3 stained where as the OPI and China Glaze did not.
