Aaaannd as of this manicure, I am now officially caught up with everyone! I couldn’t be more excited, because honestly doing 4 manicures today was kind of a torture, but I’m glad I made it 🙂
At first I painted my nails with Color Club Mod in Manhattan, then on a piece of paper I lined up a drop of each from top to bottom: red – Julep Jackie, orange – SpaRitual Hijinks, yellow – Color Club Almost Famous, green – Sephora Collection Picnic in the Park, light blue – essie Bikini so Teeny, blue – Color Club Insta-this, purple – Lakur Purple Reign. After the colors were lined up, I took a sponge and pressed it firmly against the pattern then lightly patted it on my nails without trying to make it look too neat, because tomorrow we have a gradient day, so I didn’t want the manis to overlap. After the rainbow layer dried, I applied striping tape in various shapes and painted another layer of Color Club Mod in Manhattan on top. I feel like it toned down this mani a lot, making it more wearable and not super tacky.
Coming up tomorrow – gradient nails!
Loving these, def have to try a rainbow nail before summer is officially over :).
Thanks!! I’m glad you like it 😀
What kind of sponges do you use?
Hi Dacia!
I use these from Missha: http://www.misshaus.com/ctrl.php?page=mainProductDetail&p_code=MSMS1205
Every time I order a new bottle of BB cream from them I also add some nail sponges to my cart, so I always have a good supply at home. It’s a good price and I like the applicator that comes with it.
