NOTD: A Hi-Tech Pineapple

Hey Ladies!

Today I have a funky look for you guys from the vault. I decided to recreate a look I did before (here) but with different colors, obviously. I started off with 2 coats of a China Glaze color from the Island Escape collection. Electric Pineapple is a lime green creme. It's bright but the green holo makes it seem much more toned down than it really is. I used french tip stickers (the ones that are slightly curved, not straight) to make the diagonal line. Then I used Milani's Hi-Tech on the slanted tip portion. Hi-Tech is a light green (with subtle gold) holographic. I never thought I would like this combination. My skin tone usually doesn't go well with colors that are kinda puke-ish yellow/green. LOL!

funny, i did almost the same mani a few days ago.

i just used a different polish as a base (easy peasy, lemon sqeezy! from catrice).

i still think, it's a great mani, especially now, when i see the pictures of your nails :D

I have this color (ELECTRIC PINEAPPLE) but I can't figure out how to pair it. I think on it's own, it's terrible. You've opened my eyes!

Cute - I like the split on it you did. I just cannot pull off these yellows or greenish yellows at all myself. I look sick.
