Hey lovelies, happy Wednesday!
Long time, no post. I’ll be honest — blogging has been really hard this month. Even wanting to do my nails has hit a road block. I’m still painting them, but I don’t necessarily have the energy to do nail art. Hoping once this month is over, I’ll feel super inspired again.
But I did manage to do a simple nail art look recently, so I’m excited to share it!
The polishes I used for this manicure are:
- Top Coat: Essie Gel Couture Top Coat
- Base Coat: China Glaze Calcium Gel Fortifier
- Essie Love Sheen (Silk Watercolours collection)
- Ardene Secret Diary
- Quo by Orly Nail Art Striper in Black
I started off by creating a jelly sandwich using Essie Love Sheen & Ardene Secret Diary. Originally that had been my only plan for these nails. But the next day, I couldn’t help but thing that some black outlining would really up the dramatic factor of this manicure — & I was right!
I don’t do outlining often, mostly because it takes a very steady hand I don’t always posses. But I’m so super proud of how these turned out & how neatly I managed to outline them! & nothing makes me happier than a cleanly drawn manicure!
What do you think about my outline glitter sandwich nails? Are they dramatic & fun? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below!
& if you have some nail art inspiration you want to shoot my way, I’m always looking for new inspiration for my nails! & with this nail art block I’m going through, I’d love some help to break out of it!
Happy Wednesday loves
🖤
