Glow-in-the-Dark Water Spotted Design on Holo Gradient: Recycle Mani Monday

I decided I needed to jazz up my latest mani, so I added a gradient and some water spotting!

I used Anonymous Lacquer Pinkini and Blue Bloods (both amazing gorgeous holos!) for the base gradient, then Polish Me to Go (who is sadly no longer in business) Snow Glow for the water spotted part.

The fun part of this one.... the white polish glows in the dark!

I like to refer to this look as "exploded ghosts" or "ectoplasm blowout"! It just looks so freakin cool in the dark! I am in love love love with this mani!

In the dark, it's like crazy, glowing oceans from a global view! Or galaxies. Or.... something, and pretty badass, dontcha think?!

Thank you so much! It's definitely one of those "OMG I can't stop staring at my nails" manis, and my daughter likes playing with the light to see it!

I love water spotted nails!!! It also reminds me of sea foam kinda!!! I love what you did here though and the fact that it glows in the dark!!! Gives the look a whole new vibe!
