Day 3: Yellow Nails

When I think of nail polish colours, yellow is one of the last on my list and I know a lot of you guys will agree with me. It's just not very flattering on most skin tones so most of the time it gets shoved to the back shelf.

I only have one yellow polish so choosing today's colour was a doddle! I bought it a few months back because I always found myself needing yellow for a few of my freehand nail art ideas but the formula is horrid. 
I had to paint a white base on to my nails before even thinking about applying the yellow because it's watery and I'd need a good 4/5 coats for it to be anywhere near opaque.

Of course I couldn't pass up the opportunity for some comedic nail art on this shockingly bright colour!
The thumb is the symbol for radioactivity and on my ring finger is the bio hazard sign.

  1. I actually love yellow nail polish! Too bad the formula is sheer because this is a really nice shade I think. I love the nail art you did on them! Really fun!! ^^

  2. I love yellow polish! Too bad the formula on this one was a bust because it's a gorgeous yellow. I also like the biohazard design you've added. :p

  3. I agree... Yellow is not the "it" nail polish colour... And the formula is often worse than painting with eggyolk.
    I've never thought to put it over white! BRILLIANT IDEA!

    love how you made it your own with the nailart! :)
    See you tomorrow ;)
