Nail wrap recreation

Hey!

I have a mani that you've probably seen before. I reviewed some nail wraps from Bornpretty a couple days/weeks ago and I mentioned recreating them with stamping. Well I didn't have any stamping images close enough to the images on the wraps so I freehanded it.

Take a look at the mani. 
Base: Revlon Holographic Pearls

I did three coats of Revlon Holographic Pearls and one coat of Seche Vite. 
Then with a small detail brush and black acrylic paint I drew in some stems and leaves. With a light blue sheer polish I sort of outlined some flowers. I filled in the flowers with Shinespark Polish Dancing Dolphins (blue) and Silence Surprise (purple). Finished it with a center of MPolish Starflower and one coat of Seche Vite.

For reference here are the nail wraps and the review, which was not so great.

How do you guys think I did? I thought they were going to turn out way different but I'm glad I gave it a shot.



Thanks for reading! See you soon ;)

Floral design on nude base

Hi beauties! 

Today I have a floral design on a nude base inspired by a phone case. I'm always browsing Pinterest for nail inspo when I can't sleep!

Here is the mani along with the inspiration photo.


Here's what used for my design.

Sheer nude base 
Acrylic paint
Small detailing brush
Clean up brush (kolinsky 666 from Amazon)
Seche Vite top coat
NYC matte me crazy matte top coat

Begin with two-three coats of your sheer nude polish. Wait a couple minutes for it to dry. Once it's dry start painting a couple dots/blobs along the tip of the nail in your desired colors. These will turn into flowers.

After your dots are done start adding some leaves and stems where there's plain spots. I used two shades of green for the leaves and stems.

Go back and start adding centers and highlights to your flowers. 

Clean up your cuticules with your clean up brush dipped in acetone and top coat.

Final result:

I wanted them matte so I applied one coat of NYC matte me crazy. I prefer these matte. I love final result!!


What do you guys think of this design? Do you like it better glossy or matte?

Thank you for reading. See you next time :)
