Kingsday waterfall nails and Elevation Polish - Epidote

It has been Kingsday in The Netherlands for the very first time ever!
Naturally I needed to match my nails to the festivities: I did waterfall nails this year.
As a base I used OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, for the waterfall I used OPI a Roll in The Hague, Nicole by OPI Kourt is Red-y for a Pedi, OPI Red Lights Ahead Where? and Koh! Rock Chick.
I have just one pic that is showable here (I was in a hurry and messed up the rest of the photo's).....

It looked way more festive in real live, not dirty and washed out like above >sigh<

Back to real live; a while ago I bought this lovely holografic polish at Elevation Polish and wore it immediatly and loved it to bits!
It is Epidote, a light olive colour with scattered holografic particles (no spectraflair).

Epidote is yummy and squishy and very spring appropriate I think: it reminds me of budding leaves and fresh flower stems. This was a pretty thick 2 layers, the consistency was a bit syrupy but workable.

Happy happy, joy joy!!! A rainbow mani with OPI, Essie, Zoya, Sation, Orly, Koh, Collistar, H&M and Sinful Colors

I love rainbows!
I love arranging pencils in a rainbow, hair elastics, egg holders, plates, glases, books, clothes, necklaces and naturally to select polishes in rainbow shades.
So that is what I did and then I mixed them up to get it a little more playfull....things you can do on a not so sunny afternoon...... ;-)
