OPI’s NEW Chrome Effects and Infinite Shine Glaze Toppers
After seasons of barely-there manicures and minimalist nail looks, chrome is officially back in the spotlight.
Nail artist Casey Herman paints this sparkly design inspired by My Little Pony's Rainbow Dash.


Manicurist Casey Herman (@caseynails) painted this manicure inspired by Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony. “Rainbow Dash is one of my favorite My Little Pony’s! I know she likes to fly and is a little bit of a daredevil so I thought she needs some racing stripes. I wanted to capture that feeling in a nail design so I created one with her tail swirling in the wind. Of course she still likes cute things so I had to add a sparkly stripe.”
How to paint the stripes:
1. Polish entire nail with three coats of Hay Girl Hay! for full nail coverage.
2. Apply a stripe of Applejack of My Eye to the corner of the nail near the cuticle.
3. Next apply a stripe of Too Busy Being Awesome along the tip of nail.
How to paint the tail:
1. With a striping brush apply an arch of Applejack of My Eye.
2. Follow that with a stripe of Sweet as Pinkie Pie.
3. Add a stripe of Kill ‘Em with Kindness then Cutie Mark the Spot.
4. Finish your Rainbow Dash tail with a stripe of Too Busy Being Awesome
