Starting with a super simple floral. I freehanded a floral design using All About Nails Liqorice over LA Colors French white with a detail brush. What I did do differently (and will always do in future!) is after the first coat of white, I added a coat of matte top coat before the second coat of white. Instant streak free white coverage in two coats - finally! I've seen the tip on Facebook loads this week so I'm not sure who posted it first, but whoever you are, thank you!!!
I think it looked great as it was, but I couldn't resist the temptation to add in a splash of Jessica Purple Burst as I've just added some slices of this exact colour to my hair and now my nails match perfectly - win!
I have three more NCC posts for you before the end of the month, and I will also be posting an update on my time away from the blog, the realizations I've made and the decisions I've come to, so its looking like a busy week for me!
Hope you are all having a fab summer (and that winter isn't being too harsh on all you Southern hemisphere readers!).

Gorgeous look! Thank you for the great tip...I'll definitely do that next time I paint my nails white!
ReplyDeleteGreat outcome! <3 I'm not good at all at freehand and I definitely need to improve my stamping. It could be a great alternative to try something similar myself :D
ReplyDeleteGah that pop of color just DOES IT for me! These are beautiful and totally "you."
