More Nail Art

Hey guys! In lieu of posting swatches I'm just sharing some of my instagram photos for now. You can find me at aleah86 for others. Although that's my only instagram so you'll get to meet my cat too!

I had one of those nights where I just couldn't sleep so I did a simple french sponge gradient. In hindsight, I shoudkbhabe started with a white base but oh well. I used Zoya Cho and a Pure Ice random white. I added a coat of OPi You Callin' Me A Lyre to smooth everything out and finished with China Glaze Fairy Dust to add some sparkle. Haha. I was pretty bored.

Nail Art

Hey guys! Sorry it's been so long since my last post. Life has been pretty hectic lately and posting just wasn't an option.

I've just got a quickie for you today. I couldn't sleep so I did a quick gradient look on my left hand. (My right has has some orange cheery color on it. Haha)
I used China Glaze Flirty Tankini for the pink and Finger Paints Pop Art Purple for the....want to guess? (Hint: it's the purple.) But I bet you guessed that! Hehe. I used the sponge method for the gradient and then added a layer of Maybelline Clearly Spotted for the black and white glitter. 

I really love this look. It's so bright and just stands out but is super simple to do. 



I hope you enjoyed this quick nail art share and have a great night! (Or day, depending on your location.)

Just wanted to add a quick update. I saw this design with similar colors and the black/white polka dots on Chalkboard Nails. I didn't do it the same way; I used a sponge. Click the link for the inspiration for this and info on a different technique.
