Allo polish Pals!
How are you doing today? I hope you are
all well. I'm having one of those days; Keep the
coffee comin'! I decided that today I would show you a manicure I did
which I was really quite happy with. Of course,
sometimes things aren’t that simple. When I was in England I
changed a few things about how I took my pictures... Now that I am
back home I see a huge drop in picture quality. Hopefully
soon this will be permanently fixed soon; Fingers crossed my pictures
will come out better constantly once I have that sorted. So
this manicure while it is so pretty in person, really the gradient
looks really striking! It just doesn't show too great in pictures...
sigh!

| So ashamed of this mani! :/ |

| Inspired by Robin Moses |
On all my nails I started by creating a
gradient. To do this I first applied two coats of Barry M's 'Baby
Pink'. I then sponged on Color Club's 'Cloud 9', DA's '112', and
Model's Own 'Amethyst' to go from pinky-holo to purple. I used a
small brush and white and black acrylic paints to create the flowers.
I could have done a much better job and I am hating looking at these
pictures...
What do you think of this
manicure? Are you fond of gradients and floral together?
Have a beautiful day!
Love
Ithi
I like the Baby Pink from Barry M. Gradient and flowers are wonderful together! I really haven't noticed a change in your pictures. Maybe only you can see it :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Stadwaldvogel! I am so glad you think so :) There where only two HUGE changes actually, I went from a white backdrop to a black one while I was in England and I also had a huge beefy lighting system. Thankfully my parents are so awesome that they are sending me a dupe one of the one they let me borrow :) <3 Good family! I guess I notice going back to my original set up while others only focus on the nails as that's what its about, I'm too much of a perfectionist sometimes! xx
DeleteI loooove gradients and this colours and pattern that you've created are soooo beautiful. :-)

DeleteI think these pictures look fine! I love the holo-y background, and the flowers look gorgeous :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lucy, I am such a huge sucker for Holo's which is why I think I liked how it looked in person! I'm glad you can see that because I don't feel like these pictures captured it! xx
