Thank you guys so much for the lovely comments on my last post, they really mean a lot. I'm so behind in posting on social media and responding to comments but I will really try to get caught up soon!
In case you were wondering, the big change I was talking about was that my boyfriend and I broke up. We dated for almost three and a half years, all through my college and university life (so far) and starting near the end of grade twelve. I know it was for the best, however, so I know I'll be okay.
Serious stuff aside, onto the nails!
I never write about the fact that I always start with a coat of base coat (Orly Bonder) but I do! I always mention the top coat I use (Essie Good To Go) so it's only fair to start talking about my favourite base coat!
Next, I went in with American Apparel Mount Royal (dark blue seen in the bottle shot below), OPI Green-wich Village (sheer green), Girly Bits I've Got High Hoops (medium brighter blue) and American Apparel Malibu Green (teal) in that order. I wiped most of the polish off of the brush before swiping horizontally and vertically across my nail with each colour.
After a bit of dry time I added a coat of my trusty Essie Good To Go and I was finished!
These also felt quite salon-y to me as well as very beach/ocean inspired! I liked wearing these quite a lot, though they did chip quite fast. I think that happens more easily when the layer of polish is thinner so I wasn't too surprised. I was also happy to create a dry brush look that I liked because I'm generally not a fan of the way this technique looks.
What do you guys think of this look or the dry brush technique in general? I'd love to know!
Thanks for having a look guys! I'll be back with a water marble look followed by some raspberry nail art! Happy Wednesday! :)
