Jackson Pollock Style Nails - NOTD



The key to this is taping your fingers so there is only a little bit of clean up at the end. You look a bit weird, check my week in photos post, but it's a life saver. It also definitely depends on which polishes you use. I found thinner one's didn't work so well. Pick polishes that only need one or two coats, they tend to work better.
For this particular one I used Essie Mint Candy Apple as the base then Avon Licorice* and Models Own Snow White for the splatter. I did try to add Revlon Minted but it didn't work. You can probably see a few splotches of it but I found it wouldn't splatter. I also added Essie's Matte About You which I much prefer, it just looks so much better matte. I also found that this made it easier to photograph.
