The wweather's been so nice and summery, I decided to have a bit more fun with this challenge today and went for a mani that has drawn partial inspiration from one of the most lovely things from Summer: beach tents :)
I started with one coat of white, using Purple Professional No.32.
I waited for it to fully dry and applied tape in triangular shapes next to my nail matrix.
I then applied each of the three polishes: Beauty UK Turquoise Shimmer (both on my index finger and my pinky), Prestige Orangerie and Rimmel London Pink of Me.
Do you see the black lines? Straight
squiggles! That's something I used to do on
paper to calm myself down whenever I was feeling too anxious or just
downright impatient ;)
To do those, I used my black striper Kiss SPA12 Black and added the black squiggles on the white triangles .
This gives me a strong Summer feel, because these little tents are almost in every beach we have in Portugal :)
Do you have those in the beaches near where you live?
And what do you think of this mani? Do you think it resembles beach tents in any way? :D

This is fantastic! I love those black stripes :-D
ReplyDeleteThank you - I also liked how they came out: they make me think cartoonish! ;)
DeleteGorgeous! It's so original and fun, we also have these little tents in Argentina's beaches because it can get very windy sometimes, I totally got the summer impression.
ReplyDeleteCool! I'm glad they gave you the same feeling - thank you for you sweet comment! :)
DeleteOh Mina, you always surprise us with something! I love these :) although they don't really remind me of beach, because in NL we don't have any tents on the beach and its freakin cold! but I can imagine in Portugal the beacheas are dreamy. Great job! I'm made a splatter mani for this challenge and will upload it as soon as I'm home :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, so sweet of you **
DeleteThe beaches around here are definitely different from those in NL ;)
But i'm glad you liked the mani anyway and can't wait to see your splatter mani - it's one technique I have yet to experiment! :)
Super cute, I love this mani! It makes me want to go to the beach right now :)
