So the better late than never saying applies to today's post! I normally do a Manicure Monday post, but yesterday was a little crazy so with that I give you a Tuesday Manicure! Doesn't have the same ring, but it works!
I hope everyone had an excellent long weekend! Hopefully the Easter bunny was good to you all.
Today's nail tutorial was inspired from some flowers I picked up last week. I hope you like it, keep reading to find how how!
WHAT I USED:
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri #32 Instant Iris
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri #450 Lickety-Split Lime
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Chartreuse Chase
Revlon Color Stay in Buttercup
Sinful Colors in 24/7
Dotting tool
Nail art brush
HERE'S HOW:
Paint all nails with 2 coast of Instant Iris, leaving the ring finger unpainted.
Paint the ring finger with 2 coats of Chartreuse Chase.
Allow to dry, but first paint a coat of Essie good to go. This will help seal in the manicure and speed up drying time.
Using the small end of the dotting tool, begin random dots with Lickety-Split Lime about 1/4 of the way up from the nail tip, in a small circle pattern.
Next using the larger side of the dotting tool and Buttercup, paint random dots around the Lickety-Split Lime.
Take the nail art brush and Instant Iris, begin drawing the leaves of the flower.
Using 24/7 go in and create some detail within the flower petals with the nail art brush.
Allow to dry and then paint another coat of good to go to seal in the flower design.
There you have it! A spring inspired manicure! I love love love Instant Iris it is the most beautiful color for this season and it looks great with a tan!
I hope you enjoyed!! What are you wearing on your nails right now??
