When your nails need some love

For the last 20 or so years my dad has worked for a company that makes products for other companies. These include makeup, cleaning chemicals, medicine, laundry detergent, various food items...ect. Over those 20 years he's gifted things to me like random shades of eyeshadow I'll never wear and fancy hair products that have labels in other languages. As much as I appreciate the Sugar Plum scented dish soap (which really was awesome, and smelled great) I have no need for many of these goodies. Finally, I managed to use some stuff, by making something else.

Making Your Own Color of Nail Polish
You need:
clear nail polish
eye shadow
container to mix them
(I used a paper cup)
small paint brush


1. Put some clear polish in small container. Remember, to use enough to do all your nails, it's hard to remake mix and make create the same shade.


2. Stir the eye shadow and polish together.


3. Apply to nails.



When the color dries it has a metallic sheen but still a matte finish!
