Hello lacquered lovelies! Happy Sunday! I hope you're all having a good weekend :) I'm hopefully going to have a video up later on today but I figured I'd post this quickly since I've got the pictures edited.
So, you guys read Marta's blog, right? Of course you do. I love her blog - her manicures are always inspiring and chic. Much classier than what I could ever pull off but Marta does it beautifully! Some of my favourite manicures that she shares are her skittle manis - like this one she posted recently, which is amazing, or these two... I love how she mixes it up and does different designs on all (or most) of her nails but it doesn't look childish! I feel like it always looks childish on me but it's probably my colour choices.
Anyway, this is my first attempt at a proper skittle manicure. I used China Glaze Def Defying and American Apparel Hassid. Started out by painting all of my nails but my thumb and ring fingernail with Def Defying, used Hassid on my thumb and ring fingernail. Decided to mattify it (you guys know how much I love black matte nails, right?), then decided to add polka dots. Pinky and thumbnail left on their own, then added LA Girl Glitter Addict in Uninhibited on my index. This was so fun!
So there it is, just a quick post. What do you guys think? Have you done any skittle manicures before? How do you like to mix them up?
