some new nailart I've been working on! @pookiebear0625 on Instagram if anyone's interested in seeing my other stuff ♡♡♡
I've been slowly getting back to being more consistent with painting my nails. For the most part, I've just been wearing clear polish or a nail treatment of some sort for the last month or so. Doing some catch up with posting but as I was scrolling through my phone for pictures of my June mani's, it seems as if I had an "On Wednesdays we wear pink" theme taking place. 😂 At least for the first half of this month; though now, I feel like I need to go for another pink polish next week. 💅
Today's pink was courtesy of China Glaze Roses Are Thorns, a vibrant hot pink neon. Like most neons, this one dries down to a matte / demi-matte finish. This is 2 coats of the base color and one coat of Glisten & Glow Top Coat.
And from earlier this month:
A little nail art ...
This one didn't quite turn out the way I wanted but I'm planning on redo-ing this look again in the future, with a sponge wedge and a slight adjustment to how I position/order the polishes used, primarily LynBDesigns Aries (from the 2022 Zodiac Collection). We shall see if that helps for a smoother ombre effect. 🤞
Spoiler
I used Zoya Ana as my base coat - it's described as a light toasted almond, which sounds about right, though there are some slight pink and greige underones to it in real life. Satin finish. One coat.
Two coats of Lyn B Designs Aries (from her 2022 Zodiac Collection) followed as the base color and a polish I used as one of the ombre colors on the sponge tip applicator. The blush pink base of LBD Aries contains a smattering of holo flakies (for which that collection was known) and shimmers of various hues, including gold, orange, red, copper and a deep purple.
In addition to LBD Aries, I also applied Olive & June x Colleen Hoover Perfect Pinwheel, a coral creme, and Essie Mrs. Always Right, a deeper, neutral toned, pinky-rose red with slighty muted brown undertones.
Topped everything with KBShimmer Smooth Moves; two coats.

The idea for this ombe came from my wanting to do an ombre nail and my use of Lyn B Design Aries the previous week.
