So the prompt for today is to try a new technique. I had a bit of difficulty choosing something for this as I tend to try things as soon as I see them. But luckily there was one that I managed to hold on to long enough through a combination of laziness and willpower and that is the waterfall technique. I googled a ton of examples, picked some colours and went to work!
I started with a base of LA Colors Sand Storm and once that was dry, added the waterfall lines with a striping brush using Barry M Gelly Papaya, Greenberry and Key Lime. I then added a little LA Colors Metallic Silver to give it a little something extra and finished with Seche Vite.
I'm very happy with how these turned out as a first attempt! Luckily it wasn't as hard as I anticipated. I like the colours too, so overall feeling pretty pleased with myself today :)
Don't forget to check out all the other new techniques being shown off below (I'm hoping to find some more things to try as I look through them all), and I will be back with a mani that features something form my Inspiration board/Pinterest on Wednesday :)
Good luck on your job interview! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! It went well, but now is the worst bit while I wait to hear...
DeleteI've never heart about that technique:) Have to try it soon:)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your job!:)
Thank you! The technique is a lot easier than I though it would be (as long as you have a very fine striping brush!). Make sure you let me see if you try it out :)
DeleteGood luck with your interview. And I just love when nail art is so much easier than you anticipate :) This looks great!
