Ever After: Irish duo and a Peek at Spring

Ever After's Irish duo is unusual in the sense that it's not a green and gold duo but the colors of a good dark stout beer! I've created a sponged on gradient nail art look to mimic a tall glass of a dark Irish stout.

The blackened brown jelly is called The Good Stuff (opaque in two coats) and the sparkly sheer creamy shade is called Let It Settle. Underneath my gradient, I used a cream colored polish called Milky Ways.

We see you spring time! The beginning of spring from Ever After is this polish called Peep Show, a sparkly pastel yellow akin to the color of a marshmallow peep! It is a softened shade, which I enjoy more than the sharp/bright shades of yellow. I wore two coats to reach opacity.

I also shot a comparison of Peep Show and A Kiss Would Be Nice, Yes? to show the differences in the two polishes under the same lighting. I hope it's helpful!

These polishes and the Princess Collection all launch tomorrow at 5pm Central. Are you ready?!

  2. That gradient is absolute perfection! And, while I'm not usually a yellow person, I think that I may need Peep Show; it looks like an awesome shade of yellow!

  9. Love the gradient! What a great way to make a duo for St Patrick's without it being green.

    1. Thanks! And yes, I agree it's nice to see something that's not green but still celebrates the holiday.
