I've been preparing my apartment for a move that the hubby and I are making at the end of the month and I've been too pooped to post! Thankfully I have a few manis sitting in my unedited folder to get us thru 'til June... all is not lost ;) For today's post, I have some polka-dot framing nail art with a shade from the China Glaze City Flourish Collection that came out this Spring...
Colors Used: China Glaze - Grass is Lime Greener, Rimmel - Black Satin
We all know how much I love neons, so when I saw photos of this beauty I knew i had to have it! I'm pretty sure everyone in my area felt the same way because I could not find it in stores anywhere near me. I ended up buying it in a destash sale from Indie500Nails (thank you Amy!!). I will admit the formula on this polish was not ideal; I applied 3 coats for opaqueness. While It was slightly streaky, I still loved how it looked on :)
I then took a medium sized dotting tool and applied my black polka dots. I liked it but thatought it needed little somethin' somethin'. So I pulled out my black striper and framed my nails. Aaaaaand I loved it!
Pastel neon's... who'd have thunk!
Wishing you all a very happy Thursday and a wonderful weekend :D
Until next time!

These are cute! I like the border on the nails too.
ReplyDeleteI too, love neons but had issues with Grass is Lime Greener as well. It's such a gorgeously mint-ish neon green but the formula...bleck. You can't even coax it onto the nail! I love that you added the framing to this with the polka dots! I just might have to recreate this!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely looking mani!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job with this mani--I thought the dots were stamped at first.
ReplyDeletewow those photos look beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteLove this manicure :)
