Guest Post on The Dalai Lama's Nails


Revel Nail Swatches

Hello loves!  What do these 6 Revel Nail colors have in common?  I used them all to recreate this adorable design by Hannah from The Dalai Lama's Nails for her Blogiversary celebration!  Hannah's design is pictured below.  Swing on over to her blog to check out my guest post to see my 100% gel version.  ;)

Also, since I used three colors I haven't swatched for you before, here are those swatches.  ;)

Revel Honor is a pure white cream.  Like most whites, I felt this one needed three coats for complete opacity.

Hijinks is a very soft, light pink cream.  Hijinks also needed three coats to be fully opaque.

Finally, Envy is a soft mint green cream.  Another three coater for complete opacity.  I guess that's the trend with these lighter colors for me.  My stubborn VNL plays a large part.

Excuse the photo quality on this one.  I had to shoot dark and brighten the image in photoshop to keep it from blowing out the polish so that it looks white.

I hope you enjoy my recreation of Hannah's mani!  Would you believe this is the first time I've done an animal print design?  Crazy, right?
