#nailartjan- Day 09- Pattern

Hi guys! So today, again a day late, i bring you my design for this months nail art challenge. Day 9 in pattern. Yesterday I did not have much time do think of anything so I went for something simple. I actually did two different patterns. I was able to do this because I only removed the accent nail from Day 6's disaster. I decided to leave them because I didn't have much time to remove all the glitter, and I had really liked the color combination. For my first design I made a simple cheetah print. I liked it, but thought it was a bit to simple, so I decided to make a few flowers for an accent nail and stamp the rest with a polka design.

------------------------------------------

The first pattern/print I did. For this one I used two Rimmel London Lasting Finishing Pro colors in Hot Cocoa, and Steel Gray.

Color Zone- No Name ( Bought this in a Instagram destash)

Santee- White

Santee-Modern Purple

Salon Perfect- Loopy Lime

I used the soft lavender for the stamping, and I love it! I really think this makes it look more soft and dainty. 

For the polka dots I used a Bumdle Monster plate (#BM19).

Up close- Unfortunately right when I was stamping I noticed I had a bit of polish coming off by my cuticle. I decided to just leave it alone as I did not want to add another coat of glitter. Sorry!

I hhope you find this as cute as I did, haha!

Until next time! <33

#nailartjan- Day 06- Sparkles

So for this month I decided to do a nail art challenge by @CaliforniaNails on Instagram. I really liked this one from all the other ones I had seen because this one does not require you to do your nails everyday.  

For day 06, the challenge was to do sparkles. 

I had a brand new Candies nail polish from Christmas so I really wanted to use that. 

As a base coat, I used a Milani nail polish. I really liked the pairing of these two. They really compliment each other well. 

I still though that my nails needed more sparkle, so I decided to attempt a glitter placement for my accent nail. I choose a gold glitter to contrast the silver. That was a big mistake! Not only did the glitters bleed the color on to my nail, they also shifted. Needless to say I am very sad with the way this turned out. I will deffinetely be attempting this soon. 

Can you see the bleeding on the gold? It kinda looks like hidden shells in the sand here..which I kinda like. Haha.

If you are joining this challenge, let me know! I would love to see what you guys come up with! 

Until next time! <3
