Hello
there lovely readers!
Today's
nail art was one of my "extreme acts of randomness....just go in
with a few magic spells and hope for the best" type designs &
features a simple geometric style with pointed triangles & a few
polka dots thrown in for luck. I find the combination of sharp pointy
edges mingled with with soft round circles strangely satisfying
I
decided to just freehand my triangles on this design, however if you
wish to get sharper edges & points then you can also use strips
of nail art tape as guides but as usual I was just too impatient &
went in with my trusty nail art brush & a few prayers!
I
started with a lovely nude base, this is two coats of Humidi-Tea by
OPI. As much as I do feel OPI is a tad overrated when it comes to
price & formula, I can't help but love them just for their
utterly fabulous polish names! Humidi-Tea is a lovely pink toned nude
with a delicate shimmer.
For
my geometric angles I dug out this lovely deep dark purple shimmer called Naomi by Aussie brand Bloom which my lovely pal Chelle
sent to me in a care package. Dipping my fine brush into the polish I
free handed 4 triangle shapes, all center facing, one in each corner
of the nail.
Then
for the sparkle factor, I applied some dots in amongst my sharp
angles using Models Own Velvet Goth polish in Sardonyx which is one
of my favourite red sparkles, so gothic & gorgeous!
Finish
with topcoat & you're done! Whenever stuck for nail art ideas I
always love to play around with different styles, patterns & just
hope for the best. Random is my middle name. Thanks for reading,
until next time!
Lotsa love to ya!
Haha, all my manis are a just go with it kinda creation. I love that when I start I generally have no idea where it'll end. This is very pretty and I think the colours go so well together!
