Someone helpppp Laughing

I'm desperately looking for a rainbow polish. Obviously it would have to be glitter unless there's some miracle polish I don't know about Razz

I'm going to a 'pride' event with my sister & her gf and I thought i'd be fun to get in to the whole pride thing for them. But i can only find metalic glitter rainbows rather than bold colour glitters. I've seen a couple on etsy like this [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] but they don't look great on the sample nails.

Any ideas of where I can find a rainbowy polish? Or simple DIY things I can do? I don't really want to mess around with striping tapes to do my own rainbows, and i'm useless doing my 'wrong' hand so i'm stuck for ideas Sad

Help ladiessss Laughing

Slightly boring (but a quick fix that I'm sure you've thought of) - just skittle up a rainbow in different colours?

Do what now? Laughing

I thought about water marbling a rainbow but the thought of doing 7 colours on 10 nails and getting each one to look nice makes me want to cry in a corner Shocked Laughing

There are six colours. So how about one colour on 4 fingers, then split your thumb down the middle with the final two colours?

Alternatively I don't mind marbling you a rainbow onto plastic, then I can post it so you can just put it on your nails.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Like this but brighter and not glittery? Swap the pink for an orange/yellow?

I did them like this

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Basically, I water marble, the put the whole circle onto plastic, not onto nails. I let it dry. Post it.

When it gets to you, chop up the plastic into strips to fit your nails. Paint your nails in one of the colours, then peel the nail polish off the plastic. stick the polish which is now like paper off the plastic and place it on your nail.

Let it dry out. Top coat it, then take the excess from around the nails and clean up. Tada!
