Finger Paints Silkscreen Green

 Hello! Today I have another swatch of a polish from the Finger Paints Summer Neons Collection. This on is called Silkscreen Green. It's a bright, neon green polish. Application was great however unlike Pop Art Purple and Iconic Orange, I found that I needed two coats for this polish. Like the other two though, a base color, like white, wasn't needed.

Finger Paints Iconic Orange

Hey everyone! Today I've got a swatch of Finger Paints Iconic Orange to share with you. Iconic Orange is an outrageously bright neon orange from the Finger Paints Summer Neons Collection. Like Pop Art Purple, it doesn't require a coat of another polish underneath (White for example) and it is a one-coater.  These photos definitely don't do this polish justice, it's much brighter in person that's why I included the underwater shot. Apparently underwater photos of neon polishes make them look more like they do in real-life. Iconic Orange is actually extremely bright, like the brightest highlighter in the universe.

Finger Paints Pop Art Purple

Hello! Today I've got a swatch of Finger Paints Pop Art Purple to share with you. Pop Art Purple is a bright neon purple from the Finger Paints Summer Neons Collection. It's an awesome neon, it doesn't require a coat of another polish underneath to brighten it up (white for example). Pop Art Purple is also a one-coater!

Small Weekend Haul


This weekend I went to Sally's Beauty Supply and picked up a tub of Bubble White 5 Minute Effervesccent Nail Cleaner, my first three Finger Paints nail polishes, Pop Art Purple, Iconic Orange and Silkscreen Green as well as ORLY Sec 'N Dry Quick Deep-Dry Top Coat. 

I love Bubble White, I think it works great! I did a review on it here if you'd like to read it. I was looking for neon polishes & the Finger Paints were on sale buy two get on free so I went with them and I've been wanting to try this ORLY top coat because I've heard it's great for multiple layers of polish. 

If you've ever used any of these products, let me know what you think!
