A Fresh Floral

Happy Tuesday lovelies! Hope your week is off to a fantastic start. Today officially marks the last day of June, & even though I had a pretty quiet month blog wise, I’m back & going to end June with my absolute favourite thing to paint: floral. 🌸🌿 It’s actually been a hot minute since my last floral design, so I thought it was long overdue. (Plus flowers just make me so happy.)

For this manicure, the polishes I used were:

• Base Coat: Essie Strong Start
• Top Coat: Essie Gel Setter
• Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Warm Regards
• Essie Check Your Baggage
• Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Malibu Peach
• Sally Hansen MG Bourbon Babe
• Sally Hansen MG Get Mod
• Sally Hansen MG Black-y O
• Essie Off Tropic
• Essie First Timer
• NailStuff.ca 7mm detail brush (COFFEE10 to save 10%)

I’m super obsessed with how these turned out — they actually remind me a bit of a design I did a few years ago that were inspired by a day planner of mine. But I think I love these even more! I absolutely adore rustic floral designs over something a little more realistic. Maybe because there is beauty in the imperfections. Either way, I think this design turned out so beautiful & I couldn’t stop staring at them. The peach & yellow just go so well with the red-ish base shade. I can’t get enough.
