Swatching Nail Art

because, like I said, it's not in me to just do plain swatches! :)
There are several reasons for that:

(1) I don't follow the whole trend business and I don't really keep up to date with brand releases and new collections

(2) I don't think my photography is good enough to actually provide you with swatches that'll make you want to go and said polishes

(3) and... let's be honest! What I really love about this manicure world is the endless doodling possibilities and if swatching doesn't give me that, what's the use in doing it then, righ? ;)

But today I had a lazy Sunday afternoon and picked two of my new acquisitions from Bitty Professional, part of their Neon Spring Collection (better cover your eyes ;))

This is DC11 (I know what you're thinking... numbers :/)
It's a lovely neon green that works better over a white base - all it took was two layers for this finish.

Although they have changed their formula and it's much more opaque and pigmented it's still a neon, after all :)

I then went for the 'Hulk look', as BF called it :P

I sponged the tips of the nail in a V-shape, using Bitty Professional 137.

I then picked up my lovely Kiss white striper and added V-lines below the tips.

Next up os DC09 - of course it had to be pink! ;)

Can you think of a lovelier neon shade?

Again, white base for two effortless coats. Great brush, lovely finish! :)

I went with deep purple stripes using Golden Rose Nail Art 128.

And to finish the look, I added a rhinestone to each nail :)

Fancy, fancy - hahaha

I have no real mani for you today, as I did this and then gave my nails and lovely cuticles some royal treatment and well deserved rest :D

Do you also do this often? Pamper your nails & cuticles and just leave them bare for an afternoon? (that's the maximum I can do it for - muhaha!)

And how did you like these polishes? Are you also getting crazy on neons or do you prefer other Summer shades? ;)

Let me know down below and enjoy the rest of this lovely Sunday <3

Hugs & Kissies,
