Hey out there, so I found out recently that Super Mario is having it's 25th anniversary this year and I couldn't wait for the actual date to do a tribute. I started with a clear coat of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Clear'd for Takeoff to protect my natural nail. As soon as that was dry I moved on to making the french tip, I used Sally Hansen French Manicure Pen. I had a hard time with the pen the first few times but soon got the hang of it, benefit is that it dries amazingly fast. I then added a coat of Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Shell We Dance? After that layer dried I grabbed my It's So Easy Stripe Rite in a very bright green, but you could use a bright red or blue, because those are also colors of the mushrooms in the game. Make sure that before you put down any layer of color you put down at least 1 layer of white so the color comes out better. Once the mushroom layer has dried, I used the head of a push pin to create the spots of the little green guy. Make sure that you put 5 spots and then move on to the eyes, I use Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Paint. Last but not least, I add one last coat of clear coat to give a beautiful shine to the nail.
Until next time,
Happy Painting
