Easter Nails

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to post a pic of my Easter nails. Rather than do the pattern on every nail I wanted to use some coloured rhinestones and came up with this… Happy Easter!

For this look I used: index finger - Barry M 318 Peach Melba, middle finger – 17 Sherbet Lemon, ring finger – Natural Collection White with Barry M 318 Peach Melba and Barry M 304 Mint Green pattern, little finger – Barry M 251 Blue. Also un-pictured but my thumb on this hand had Barry M 304 Mint Green with a green rhinestone.

New Nail Length & Vintage Mani

I decided to give my nails a chop this week and get them all to the same length and shape, I think it looks much better :)

I decided to give vintage “Cath Kidston” style nails a go. I wasn’t sure how I’d get on with the flowers so decided to go with stripes for the rest of my nails except my ring finger. I used Barry M 251 Blue as a base colour and then using a dotting tool and Essie Van D’Go and Models Own Vintage Pink I drew the flower and used OPI You Don’t Know Jacques for the leaves. I then did vertical white stripes on the other nails using a striping tool.

I love this look and definitely want to try again with different colour combos!

Hint of Irish

Looking back on these nails, I should have SO done these for St. Patricks day! Have to remember that for next year!

I wanted to try out of the tips on my Konad plate, so decided to go for OPI You Don’t Know Jacques with Konad White…
