Drink Me, I'm Irish!


Ok, so I'm not Irish, but with my naturally pale skin, freckles, and red hair, I certainly look the part! :-P Sooooo, in honor of St. Patty's Day, I painted pints of Guinness on my nails (and some shamrocks, of course!!) My favorite part is that the brown I used is MAC's Rick, Dark, Delicious....could there be a more PERFECT color name to use for Guinness?!



I used MAC Rich, Dark, Delicious as a base, then mixed with American Apparel Cotton for the 'head' or foam. For the Shamrocks, I used Pure Ice Wild Thing. Topped everything off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.

And, to match my nails.....

GUINNESS CUPCAKES!!!!





Here is where I found the recipe, since so many people were interested in it:

  6. You are so amazing!
    and I don't know if you're taking nail ideas but I think you should do butter fingers! like a pad of butter on the nail or the actual candy bar. I think that would be funny. :)

    and those cupcakes look SOO YUMMY!!
