If you missed my last post I did a review of the Influenster Wellness VoxBox. One of the items was this Olay Active Botanicals face cleanser. It's infused with snow mushroom and doesn't that just sound like the most adorable thing ever?
Of course I had to google snow mushrooms. Not quite what I had pictured and that would have been a nightmare to paint so I did cute little button mushrooms instead.

You can check out my full review in the previous post. Basically this stuff is pretty ok. It was gentle enough for my sensitive skin and not overly scented. It wasn't too drying either which I've found is so much more important as my skin gets older and even more temperamental. As you can see below, only a small amount is needed to create plenty of lather. Ah, the interesting hand poses one comes up with when trying to show off slippery gel cleanser and nails in the same photo.
For these nails I started off with two coats of Five Rules from The Giver collection (China Glaze). I freehand painted the shape of mushrooms using white polish. Next, I colored the tops brown with Pumping Gas from Spoiled and then highlighted the stems with Chinchilly from Essie. I really like the way the small print looked. It would have looked so cute do finish out all the nails with the mushrooms, but I was running short on time so I went with my standard two accent nails.
I had at least two people ask me if these were Jamberrys or stamped. I'm going to take that as a compliment. I think this means I need to come up with more cute patterns to paint.
