Leprechaun Belt (GEL)

4. Add a belt (square) over the middle of the black line using "I Am So Honored" and cure.
5. Last, apply "Brilliance" and cure.

Pot O'Gold (LACQUER)

1. First, apply one coat of "Clingy Base Coat".
2. Next, apply 2 coats of "My Lucky Charm."
3. Paint a black pot on the bottom right of nail using the nail lacquer version of "Black Stretch Limo."
4. Then, using a striper brush, paint a rainbow using your favorite RCM nail lacquer shades such as orange "Flirt Alert", royal blue "RSVP", purple "9 Inch Heels", red "Red Carpet Exclusive", lavender "Romantic Comedy", or a metallic rose gold "Mink Coat".
5. Add gold glitter pieces from RCM’s "Gems and Jewels - Golden Dust" collection to the top of the pot/base of rainbow.
