Turquoise Mineral Nail Art

Finally brought different colors of nail polish to work.  Blue and gold polishes.  Saw many people doing turquoise rock/mineral nails and they look absolutely amazing.  I see many people do it with gel polish...which I don't own much of.  So, trying to do this with regular polishes today.

Polishes from left to right:

Sally Hansen Triple Strong base coat

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - 481 Breezy Blue

Ciate - headliner 066

Sonia Kashuk - dome a dozen 06

ME - NA5155 Solid Gold

Kiss Me - SPA02 White

Seche Vite top coat

To do this, I painted by nails with 2 coats of the base color of the light blue.  Waited for it to dry.  Then dab on the darker blue and surround it by dabs of light blue.  Using a q-tip, ever so lightly smudge the edges.  Do the same for the other colors.  It's not perfect, but it does resemble turquoise rocks.  It looks pretty good for my first attempt.
