Allo polish Pals!
How are you doing
today? I hope you all have at least one lovely thing planned for this weekend - something nice to pamper and spoil yourselves! I'm also trying really hard to stay on top of freehand designs.
I love doing all types of nail art but I feel happier when I'm posting
freehand and I also think maybe that's why you guys come here?
Today's manicure came
pretty much from nowhere. I wanted to create something freehand but I
didn't know what. In the end I decided to go for a zebra since
painting my last unicorn felt pretty calm and relaxed to paint. I
used only one polish for this manicure, besides base and top coats.
I began with Barry M's
'White' on all my nails and decided to create a pinky, orange and
yellow gradient on certain parts of the nails and as a background for
my zebra. I created everything freehand without any striping tape
(probably not the wisest idea?) and finished it all off with my
Pro-FX top coat.
Something really weird
happened which is a total new in my freehanding experience. Slowly
over time my zebra began to turn yellow! Its not too bad in these
pictures (You can see it in places if you look for it) but by the end of the day he was pretty yellow. I've never
seen my acrylics do that before, ha! It hasn't happened since,
either. How odd.
What do you
think of my stripes and zebra nail art? How do you feel about animal
print on nails?
Have a beautiful day,
Love
Ithi
I don't see anything wrong with those handpainted stripes, they are 100% perfect! What a beautiful combo of gradient and zebra! ^_^
ReplyDeleteAwwh thank you so much, Nailfame! <3 Your comments always make me smile :)
DeleteI like very much your freehand nail art, your creative ideas!! :D
ReplyDeleteThe zebra looks perfect. It's very weird that it turned yellow...
Thank you dear Ninthea! <3 I know right?! It's never happened before! Perhaps my white paint wasn't thick enough :)
DeleteWell, I think they are amazing! Lovely design and colors used. Though there are flaws, i think its not that noticeable.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Jess :) Oh there are always flaws, I stopped thinking I could create perfect things a long time go, its an unrealistic expectation to have that only hinders confidence and the drive to just try. Now I just go for it, heehe :)
DeleteThank you so much, A.notcopyacat! <3
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! These are gorgeous...LOVELY!!!
ReplyDeleteAmazing zebra! :D <3
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful! I love all your nail art and your freehand designs are always crazy good :D <3
ReplyDeleteThe zebra is soooo cute, I love it!
ReplyDeleteAnd I like animal print patterns very much on the nails, especially when there's a "full" animal like your zebra, too.
I really like the combination of a neon-like background and the black and white zebra pattern. They are contrasting and both stand out!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! I love the contrast of the black and white with the bright neons, and your freehand is perfect, as always!
