Day 93
...SPONGE-BOB SQUARE-PANTS!!!Ok, so I find myself watching Spongebob Squarepants quite a bit, not sure why, but it amuses me. :-P Lots of celebs have done voices too, including the very dreamy Johnny Depp, who teaches Spongebob how to hang ten in one episode. These nails are also, in part, for my sister, who loves Spongebob!! :) These buggers took a while, all the black line work was tough, I wonder if I can find a smaller brush? Anyway, hope they make you want to steal the Secret Formula!! :-P
I used:
Thumb: Spongebob, of course!! :-P
American Apparel Manila as a base, mixed with a teeny bit of
Zoya Envy for the spots, which you can't see really, lol.
China Glaze White on White for eyes, teeth, and shirt,
China Glaze Liquid Leather for all black lines.
Zoya Yummy for the irises of his eyes,
China Glaze Salsa for his tie and mixed with
American Apparel Manila for his cheeks, and
Zoya Dea mixed with
American Apparel Palm Springs for his pants. (His SQUARE pants ;))
Index: Patrick's Belly (I couldn't fit his whole star body)
American Apparel Palm Coney Island as a base with
Zoya Maya over top to add the coral-y ness.
Zoya Maya mixed with
China Glaze Salsa for the spots.
China Glaze Liquid Leather for the black lines,
OPI Parlez Vous OPI? for the flowers on his shorts, and
Piggy Polish Good Moor-ing for the shorts color.
FUN FACT:
I used to design the packaging for Piggy Polish when I was a freelance designer!! :)Middle: Gary's Shell
OPI Parlez Vous OPI? as the base color for the shell, with 2 coats of
Essie Waltz over top to lighten the purple (it's still too dark, but oh well... if only I had Light as Air from Up & Away!! lol Anyway, I mixed
China Glaze Salsa and
Essie Alligator Purse for the swirl, and used
Zoya Yummy for the spots. for Gary's body (what you see of it), I used
Essie Mint Candy Apple.
Ring: Squidward's Mug :-P
Essie Mint Candy Apple as a base, with
China Glaze Liquid Leather for the black lines,
Essie Alligator Purse mixed with
Zoya Dakota for the centers of his eyes,
American Apparel Cotton for the 'whites' of his eyes, and
Zoya Tallulah for the background color.
Pinky: Plankton :-)
Essie Sag Harbor as a base, with
American Apparel Cotton for the eyes,
China Glaze Salsa mixed with

China Glaze Liquid Leather to outline.
Mew.Disclosure:
American Apparel Palm Springs was provided to me by American Apparel for review.
To sum up - the Reverie Collection from Zoya is a very nice thing to start your spring with.
