Seven Days of St Patrick's: Nails Inc, Spitalfields

For day five of the challenge (or day two for me) I have Spitalfields by Nails Inc which is a shimmery green magnetic polish. I found this one at Marshal's for the ridiculously low price of 93 cents. Crazy considering that it retailed for about $15 when it first came out. I wasn't previously much into the magnetic polish trend, but the fishnet pattern caught my eye. Plus everyone at work pretty much though it was witchcraft that I did this with a magnet, so that's a win for me.

The instructions say to paint a thin coat on all your nails first and let it dry. Next, doing one nail at a time, paint a slightly thicker coat and hold the magnet just above the surface of the polish for a few seconds. 

I feel like magnetic polish is an easy way to get some pretty intricate looking nail art. I messed up on a few nails and blurred the image or only got half the nail, but it was easy to paint a fresh layer on top and try the magnet again. The end result is a look with lots of depth and interest.

Here's what the other ladies have come up with for day five:

Nails Inc Hampstead Gardens- aka The Ugliest Polish Of My Dreams

Holy crap! Literally! I've finally found the perfect shade of baby poo yellow and it's the ugliest polish in all the right ways. I've been searching for this exact color for over a year and I've finally found it thanks to the wonderful and quirky Concrete and Nail Polish. The second I saw her post I knew I had to have it. Hampstead Gardens from Nails Inc is a perfect match for this ridiculously ugly kitty shirt that I found at a yard sale, and yes, I wear it all the time... because cats.

Last fall I tried to franken a matching shade for this top, but couldn't quite get that dark mustard base that it needed. I didn't have any luck finding this polish though websites that normally carry Nails Inc but it was on eBay for a reasonable price. I don't know if you can really put a price on a polish this unique though. I probably would have paid much more to add it to my collection.

The brush was a little wonky right out of the bottle as you can see. I trimmed those long pieces off with a tiny pair of scissors and the brush worked much better afterwards. The formula has a nice consistency, not too wet or goopy. Two coats gives a perfect shiny finish.

This is my perfect shade for fall. It's so much different from anything else in my collection. I don't often wear the same polish twice in a year, but I can see myself wearing this one again soon. Maybe some art to match the kitty shirt next time?

It looks brilliant next to that blue sky too. Seriously can't get enough of this. What's the weirdest shade you've ever fallen in love with?
