Freehand Pretty Cactus Nail Art

Allo polish Pals!

How are you all doing? I hope your week is going well? Has anything exciting been going on for you – I love it when we share things!

Today's nail art is actually one I did when I was back in Holland – yep..another on with that annoying old nail shape. I actually liked this one except the writing on my thumb. Every time I do nail art with writing I feel like it lets the entire thing down but I'll still share it with you guys. You are always less harsh about my work than I am!






I guess the meaning behind this nail art is that you are fabulous, even in darkness you shine. When your casting self doubt, when you feel like you are not good enough.. You are amazing! Hold your head high and give yourself the praise you deserve. You are the only you and that's incredible. Celebrate yourself!

I began this manicure by using my OPI Nail Envy base coat. This nail art was created freehand using my fave Dance 20 brush from WhatsUpNails and acrylic paints, I began with a blank canvas of Barry M's 'White' nail polish. I also added some loose glitter to the sky (which was an acrylic-gradient, I always create my gradients using a brush.) to look like twinkly stars. I finished by sealing it all in with my Pro-FX top coat and eventually added my Barry M matte top coat.

What do you guys think of this nail art? Do you like glitter on your nails?

Have an awesome day! Thank you so much for stopping by, don't forget to leave a comment and say hi :) I'll catch you again on Saturday for some more freehand nail art.


Love,
Ithi
