Paint Splatter

So I've seen these nails done before and I really wanted to try them. I finally had the perfect opportunity! I ran the Color Me Rad 5K on Saturday! It's a race where along the track, they throw colored cornstarch on you and spray you with colored water. It was so much fun and my shirt ended up looking a lot like these nails! Worked out perfectly. :)



I didn't do a very good job cleaning up because it was so messy and took forever to clean up as much as I did. I should have taped around my fingers like you would do with a water marble, but partway into doing this I felt like it was too late and it was already messy. But it was a lot of fun to do! Trying to get the right amount of polish into the straw to blow onto my nails was kinda hard though, sometimes I would blow and nothing would come out and sometimes (like the case with the ring finger and the yellow) a big blob would just come out. I could have redone that one, but I didn't really feel like it. I forgot to look at the names of all the colors I used but I know they were all Wet 'N Wild colors. I'll update later with the colors. 

I loved how this turned out though. It was different and a lot of fun! The middle finger (minus the dent) and thumb are my favorite and the ring finger is definitely my least favorite. I can't wait to try this with other color combos!
