There have been a lot of nail polish posts on the blog
lately. What can I say – I’ve entered some kind of nail polish crazy period, I
guess.
I just have to show you a couple of my latest polishes which
work absolutely great together. I think this is my favourite combination so far
this year.
I’ve used Barry M Berry Ice Cream nail paint as a base, and Seventeen
Off the Wall Graffiti in monochrome (black and white) as the top effect.
This is what my nails look like with one
single coat of Barry M Berry Ice Cream. As you can see, the colour is
kind of see-through, and you can see my white nail tips through the polish.
Notice the difference between one and two coats of this
polish! The nails on my ring finger and my little finger only have one coat,
whilst the others are painted with two coats. Two coats is definitely needed
with this nail polish, and it creates a lovely and full lilac colour.
To make this week’s nails a bit more interesting I topped
off the lilac with a graffiti style polish. This was the first time I tried Off
the Wall Graffiti in monochrome by Seventeen, and I didn’t really know what to
expect. I was pleasantly surprised though, and am absolutely loving the black
and white effect on the lilac base. Depending on how many graffiti pieces that
ended up on the brush and on my nails, I applied one coat on some nails and two
on others – it’s all about making it look the way YOU want it to, and I tried
to get my nails as even-looking as possible.
What do you think?
As I mentioned before I absolutely love this
quirky combination, and I’ve received lots of positive comments about my nails
this week :)
