40 Great Nail Art Ideas - 3 Shades of Green

Good afternoon and happy Saturday! It occurs to me that I failed to post last week's manicure up on this blog. I don;t know what I was thinking, but I guess I was very sidetracked. Anyway, I am back, and this week I have a very green manicure. I did not intend for it to look like a Spring manicure initially, but it sort of came out that way anyway. :D


I started off this manicure with a white base. Then I used the watercolor technique (using acetone to thin the polish and let the colors bleed together) with Revlon Posh, Sinful Colors Last Chance, and Sally Hansen Perfect Pear-ing. Here is what it looked like.


After that, I used Konad Special Black and CICI&SISI plate 05 to add the swirling leafy pattern to each nail. I really love the result!


Thank you so much for stopping by to see my art today, and please make sure you look at all the other green manicures as well! There are some really great ones!

10 Day Holiday Nail Art Challenge: Day 8 - Holiday Water Color Technique

This mani is special because it is the very first time I ever tried the watercolor technique. It was fun and looks pretty. I'm definitely going to try it out again with different colors.



I used a base of Julep Kate, then added NYC Wing It Wine Creme, AVON Glimmering Gold and Zoya Ivanka - a Christmas gift from my beautiful sister! Thank you Katie! Here's another pic. I really love how this turned out!


Here's a pic of Julep Kate by itself. You can hardly tell, but it has a slight shimmer. It's very pretty - makes me think of snow!


Thanks for looking, and be sure to look at what the other girls created!
