I'm currently on a week long reading break from school which is really nice already! I just want to make sure I start my homework before Sunday since I have so much time to do it haha! I've been working on my lighting and white balance a lot lately and the next nails you see from me will be better colour-wise! I had to adjust these pictures so my skin didn't look so red and unnatural because I hadn't figured it out by the time I took these :P. I'm thinking my new soft box diffuses the light too much to the point that I might need brighter lamps, but I did end up getting better pictures of the next look I'll be posting here so I'm not really sure!
Anyways, onto the nails!
I started off with two coats of American Apparel Lopez Canyon. It was almost opaque at one coat and it probably could have been if I had have been more careful!
I then went in with two more American Apparel polishes, MacArthur Park and Berry, and a small paintbrush from Michaels (Artist Loft Vienna 18/0 Spotter). I let that dry for a while and then spritzed it with a coat of hairspray so my top coat wouldn't smudge the design. After that dried I applied a coat of top coat (Essie Good to Go) and I was done!
I really love how the little heart changes up a half moon mani so much!
What do you guys think of these nails or their inspiration? I'd love to hear in the comments!
Thanks so much for having a look everyone! On Thursday I'll be back with a swatch of the gorgeous piCture pOlish Fool's Gold! Happy Monday guys! :)
