My lip-print obsession clearly didn’t end with Valentine’s Day — and why would it? Being Irish gives me the perfect excuse to stretch that love into St. Patrick’s Day projects, including a festive manicure. The Tic Tac® Spearmint Mix inspired this “Kiss Me I’m Irish” mani, combining intense dark green and softer light green shades for a playful, color-blocked look. It’s a great way to experiment with a bold green without committing every nail to a vivid shade, and there’s a fun smooch accent nail to finish the set.
To create this look, I took cues from the Spearmint Mix: the deep, punchy green represents the intensely flavored pills, while the pale mint captures the milder spearmint pieces. The result is a chic, modern mani that blends contrast and balance. Use a base coat, two complementary greens, and a steady hand (or a thin brush) for the kiss detail. Seal everything with a glossy top coat for a lasting finish.
