#52WPNMC - 1970s - Lava Lamps

Hi Goddesses



The first of this week's #52WPNMC prompts is 1970s and I kept returning to the idea of lava lamps.





Until I started Googling, I thought the blobs just sat there, I didn't realise they "birthed" from the bottom, so to speak.





I used OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls as my base, and then lava'd with 5 holos from Liquid Sky Lacquer, which had sat untried since the start of the summer - 

thumb - Beach Bonfire
index - Papaya Smash
middle - Strawberry Mojito
ring - What Was Your Name Again
pinkie - Sizzle





For each, I started at the tip of the nail, with one bubble starting to form, and then added loose, floating bubbles higher up the nail.





I really like how this turned out - it was a very bright and happy mani to wear - and I think that's partly because of the skittle effect.  Oh, and that it looked like cow print from a distance!
