Re: Friday Mani - Spring Nails

@JenBlush I have the same nail file, and I love it!  Any advice on shaping?  The way a few of my nails grow at times, they can be awkward to shape to match the other nails.  It's mainly my left index findger and my right index and middle fingers.  My thumbs are tend to grow more rounded instead of square like most of the other nails.  Genetics can be weird lol.

Re: Friday Mani - Spring Nails

@beautytester the gold one if from ESSIE!  I love that color! 🙂

 

@kimmi I used the crystal file from sephora to shape them!! It is honeslty the best kind of nail file around!!!! Leaves the edges smooth and sharp!

@lylysa I love the watercolor look! It reminds me of speckled Easter eggs!

 

@beautytester I didn't even think of palm trees! It sounds like a good idea for summer time. I think the bunny is cute! It reminds me of something I've seen online before. Not sure if it was on Facebook or what. I can't recall what it was about or anything, though. I'll probably end up remembering after Easter lol.

 

@viviene23 I think it could work with short nails, but what is your definition of short? Some people who cut their nails short actually still have some good length to them. You may just have to make the flicks a bit shorter.

Please ignore my cuticles lol

@ kimmi

that looks really nice...do you think it would work on short nails? now that spring break is coming, I wanna paint my nails with something like that or with simple crystal nail art.

Re: Friday Mani - Spring Nails

@Kimmi. Oh that reminds me of palm trees! If you make the "leaves" green, the stripe orange/brown and the background blue, that would be totally tropical!

 

That's my Easter/Spring nails. I tried a bunny since Easter is coming, but nooot sure if it's cute or creepy. o.O

I had to cut my nails back to the bare minimum 😞

But I decided to do a watercolor/impressionist effect on my nails.

 

I saw a tutorial a long while back and decided to jazz up my nails since they are shorter. 

 

The technique is super simple and you can use acrylic paints or nail polish. I first used a pale lilac as a base on all my nails (Eskimo Kisses, Ulta Professional, holiday color in a kit). 

 

I then did the technique on select nails (3 on my left, 2 on my right), I used acrylic paints in a carnation pink, sea foam green, sky blue, butter cream yellow, and white. I took a wet paint brush, dabbled on swipes of color, layered them, but also would go back with a slightly wet brush and pat over shades to blend and meld them together. If you do this with nail polish just use a paint brush dipped in nail polish remover to thin out and water down the color dabs.

 

After it dried I just coated my nails in a clear top coat. 🙂
