notd: taliajoy's first angelversary mint mani

hi guys! i painted my nails today for talia's first angel[anni]versary. if you're confused about why i did this or missed out last year, here's a link to a recent angels for talia blog post, or you can check out my mani post from last year.

this time, i used maybelline green with envy and i sponged on teal beam in a gradient (here's the sponges i used). i also used formula x for sephora the system and sally hansen insta-dry topcoat. i applied the insta-dry after the polish layers, before placing the decals. then i used 2 coats of the formula x topcoat after the decals. ~Lin-chan ^.~
