Hello lovelies!
It's day 3 of the 31 Day Challenge. And I said I wasn't going to do that.....whoops...welp, it's late and I have class really early tomorrow soooo, yeah quick post!
Onto the nails!
I'm really loving this first week of just having colors for themes because you can still basically do whatever you want haha.
Here's what I used:
Okay, I have a quick question. Do you guys like when I put the acrylic paint in the bottle shot? I know sometimes it seems weird when it isn't there but I don't know how helpful it is when I mix colors together. So yeah, I don't know, let me know your thoughts!
These nails were my recreation of this pattern, which supposedly costs $66 a yard....I feel like that's a lot...but it was basically free to put it on my nails sooooo hehe (; But anyways, these nails started with 2 or 3 coats of My Vampire Is Buff. Then using a small detail brush and the acrylic paint, I painted on the little zig zags. After clean up, I sealed the design in with a layer of HK Girl.
According to the site where you can buy this fabric from, it's supposed to be a zebra print but I don't think it looks like one. Regardless, I really liked this design too! I know we're only 3 days into the challenge but I have a good feeling about this one. Even though, this was the last manicure that I had done ahead of time sooooo, haha yeah...
Thanks for reading guys!

I like the fun yellow zig zag lines here!
ReplyDeleteI like seeing everything that you use in your manicures. Maybe even start including the brushes you use?
ReplyDeleteI never quite understood the draw of acrylic paints until last month when I purchased my first set! It is so much easier to manipulate details. I love the zigzags, they really pop against the base!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what you use for each manicure!
I'm super late and now I want to start the challenge! I really like your color combination! Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love this look! It's kinda trippy. LOL!
ReplyDeleteNice job with the free hand zig zags, they are so even and clean. Seeing the tube of acrylic paint for me is not needed. The only time I really pay attention to the bottles is when they are by the nails. That way I can see if it dries differently than it looks in the bottle. Not sure if that was helpful or not, but thought I would address your question.
ReplyDeleteCute! I like seeing the acrylic paint in your pic personally - mainly because I don't own any yet and am interested to see the brand/ color people use before purchasing!
ReplyDeleteAhhhh this is so neat! Love how this turned out.
ReplyDeletelove this look! very pretty!
ReplyDeleteLovely! That yellow is so bold! Also I like seeing the acrylic paint in the picture. Otherwise for pictures like this it would just be a single bottle of the base colour which doesn't really represent what you used to put the whole thing together. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks nothing like a zebra print LOL. I love the design though! Your zig-zags are so perfectly aligned!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! You did such a fab job with the free-hand zig-zag pattern!
ReplyDeleteThank you!!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great idea, I can do that!!
ReplyDeleteI used to be so against acrylic paint haha. I thought it was cheating but now I love it, it makes intricate designs so much easier. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteHaha do it!!!!
