Mint Manis for Talia Joy

Nicole of Nail Polish Wars had a very nice idea for the nail community to join together to honor the life of Talia Joy Castellano, a 13-year old YouTuber and aspiring makeup artist who lost her battle with cancer earlier this week. The idea for the mint mani theme is inspired by Talia's last Instagram posting, which was a mint manicure post featuring the hands of Talia, her mother, and her dear friend Tammy.

My mint mani started with four thin coats of Sally Hansen Nail Growth Miracle Nail Color in Gentle Blossom. For the embellishment, I added the nail stickers L'Oreal Colour Riche Nail Lingerie in the design Razzle Be Dazzle. 

Artificial yellow light
This was my first time using this type of sticker. I loved the way that it looked, but they were not at all durable. I experimented on the pinkie to see if top coat would mess up the sticker--it did.

I'd like to express my sympathy to Talia's family and friends for how they will miss her.
