Abstract Candy Corn!

Hello dolls!

I'm continuing on with my Halloween manis and I decided to try out a design I saw last year and absolutely loved.  It's called "Abstract Candy Corn" and I was inspired by the ever so talented Adventures in Acetone...


 Colors Used: Sally Hansen - White On, American Apparel - Manila, L'Oreal - The Muse's Inspiration

After the time consuming eyeball mani from yesterday I decided I wanted something simple.  I had considered sponging, but wasn't really feeling that mess haha, so I decided on striping instead :)


After applying my base coat of white,  I went back with my yellow polish and , using the brush, painted the top half of my nails yellow. I then went back thru with a striping brush and added my abstract-y middle.  Everything was top coated and... tada!  That;s all there is to it :D

Really loving the way this turned out!

Until next time!

    Love love looooove this! It's holiday-themed without being too direct and obvious, and it's so pretty and wearable! I could see doing this general technique with other colors too :)
