I think this has to be the most adorable mani I've ever done. And for once, it came out on my nail exactly as I pictured it in my head. I think I could even rock this with some less-pastel colors & be quite pleased.
I started out alternating nails between China Glaze Light as Air & Something Sweet, both from the Up & Away collection. Excuse my lack of cleanup in most of these pics LOL:
Then I used pinking shears on some blue painters tape, and did french tips with matching holo colors, using Milani Hi-Res & Digital. After I took off the tape, I added dots with the creme base color & this is the final super-cute result:
I added a matte topcoat again for the 2nd day. Although they do have kind of more an eggshell finish with the Matte Magic, I think I really prefer this mani glossy. You can make your own call:
I had a great Easter & hope you all did as well =) Thanks for reading.

ReplyDeleteYou're really inspiring me to get more creative with my manis! Another really cute look, I can see it working at different times of the year as well (also like the use of holo in here!).
