To start, I painted one coat of butter LONDON's Nail Foundation Flawless Basecoat, and one coat of butter's Old Blighty. After letting that dry, I used butter's Minger and Bumster to paint segments of each nail. I painted this part completely arbitrary, trying to avoid a very obvious color block look.
After my nails were completely dry, I prepped everything for the next phase. I ripped off about a foot of saran wrap, and picked a dark polish--butter LONDON's La Moss. Doing one nail at a time, I painted one coat of La Moss then quickly, using a wadded up part of the saran wrap dabbed the wet polish on the nail. On some nails I dabbed more than once, and used different pieces of the saran wrap to ensure a different look on each nail. I thought the end result actually looked very much like my leafy autumn inspiration. After dabbing every nail with the saran wrap and letting it set for a bit I painted one coat of Seche Vite topcoat on every nail. Personally, I liked the way it imprinted on my left hand better than my right, especially on my middle finger.

Originally at $30 a bottle, I thought it a bit ostentatious to be wearing 18 karat gold on my nails, but being able to buy it at $12 with all my coupons I thought it still ostentatious, but at least at a reasonable price. How do you feel about real gold polish and my autumn look?
