Faire Maiden Desert Sage, Verdure Lush Hunter Green, Army of One Khaki Green and Nobody’s Fool Chrome Marigold give nails a high-gloss finish, full coverage and durability—just when clients might be looking for a pot of gold (or a Shamrock Shake).

Recreate the look:
Los Angeles, California-based professional manicurist Yasmeen Sandoval created a Saint Patrick’s Day-inspired nail design. Check out the video and follow her steps to get lucky with her water marble technique.
step 1
Apply two coats of green color Verdure Lush Hunter Green. Apply Liquid Palisade around cuticle and underside of finger, and allow to dry.
step 2
Fill a cup with water and add your first drop of polish. Allow it to spread.
TIP! If the polish doesn’t touch the rim of the cup, move a Q-tip around the outer edge of the cup.
step 3
Add drops of Faire Maiden Desert Sage and Army of One Khaki Green to the center of the cup until you achieve a bull’s-eye pattern. Dip a needle in the center of the pattern, moving towards the rim. Repeat from each side.
step 5
Continue this motion shown in video until you achieve a star shape. Choose the section of the design you like and dip the client’s finger parallel to the water.
step 6
Remove finger at an angle, and blow off excess water. Peel off Liquid Palisade. Use a dotting tool and Nobody’s Fool Chrome Marigold to paint gold dots at free edge or adhere round glitters. Finish with top coat.
