Mint Pearls

Hello all! I adventured into the world of detailing with nail gems today, for the first time ever. I'm pretty excited, even though a tiny part of me is thinking that maybe it's more trouble than it's worth. (Then again, if I ever listened tot hat thought, my nails would be naked all the time!
I'm not sure fi I'd call this mod, but it's something similar.
I used the little Kiss kit of "Nail and Body Gems" That you can get at any CVS or Walgreens, just a silly little $3 deal that I picked up to give it a shot. It comes with a decent selection. little bows in green and blue, pink and purple diamons, loits of silvers, and these lovely little pearls! (If you don't know me, I'm obsessed with anything pearl.) I used Sally Hanson's Mint Sorbet and the white is Finger Paints, but I'm too lazy to go get it to tell you what it's called. 
Overall, I think it went pretty well! I did them around 1, it's 9 now and none of them have fallen off yet, even through giving my sister a bath and typing this blog. Mission accomplished.
As a bonus, I did somethign I never ever do- matched my toes.
DO ignore the fact that I took this in between cleaning up my fingers and my toes. Just one pearl on my toes, because I'm afraid that one'll fall off pretty soon, given my strappy sandal tendencies. 
Anywho, thanks for stopping by!
