Nail Art Foil Collection: Greens

 EDIT: I am no longer making posts in this domain. Please follow me over to www.walkinmyeyeshadow.com to keep following my makeup journey

I was a little upset when I looked at the foils avaliable on Dollar Nail Art and there were not that many foils in green. I have found this with many nail polishes too that they don't produce a wide variety of green polishes within any company. Oh well.

In this post I will be showing you product photos, close ups of each foil and also giving you a short description on what I think they foils look like.

If you do not know what nail art foil is or how to use it please follow this link here to my Introduction to Nail Foils post for more information.

 
  

Emerald Green:
As its name suggests, Emerald is a metallic emerald green foil with mirror like reflect to it. This foil has no patter and is only a solid colour foil.









 Seafoam Green:
Seafoam Green foil is a light grey green foil with a mirror-like reflecting metallic finish. Like Emerald, this foil has no pattern and is a solid colour foil









Elven Gold:
Elven Gold is a mix of moss green, a deep forest green and gold. The look of this foil is similar to using the sponge technique to apply nail polish. This is a matte foil also and isn't reflective like Emerald or Seafoam Green.







Lime AB:
Lime AB is another foil that is similar to Gold Spectrum but with a lime green base. As the light hits this foil it reflects teal, dark green and blue. The effect created when applied to the nail is lines of holographic awesomeness. To see this foil in action, please check out Miss80Million's tutorial on Youtube by clicking here

Emerald Frost:
Emerald Frost is an emerald green based foil with a water ripple pattern to it similar to Scarlet Frost or Tanzanite Fire. The ripples of this pattern throw out holographic flashes of green, teal, blue and gold as the light hits it.







Green Lightbeam:
Green Lightbeam as the name suggests is an emerald green based foil with lines of holographic lightbeams along the width of the nail. The lightbeams reflect green, teal, blue and gold depending on how the light hits it. To see a photo of this foil and a short video of light hitting the foil please check out Tartofraises1‬‎'s video and blog post here.
