How are ya all doing? I hope your week
has been going wonderfully, was it a productive one for you? I've
been at work for a couple days this week and I am back in today. Making customers smile and smell fantastic! And seeing my dear friends who I adore there.
I had this thought recently..I've had a
feeling that's been lingering. Happiness. Like real, solid
contentment. I've felt so great lately, not that I hadn't been
feeling OK but I feel like everything has fallen into place a little
more. I love my work, my family are amazing. It just feels like
there's so much to be happy about right now. Its a complete contrast
to how I felt this time last year. Do you ever feel like that?
Today's nail art is one I really
enjoyed painting because..colours! All the colours!
For this design I began with my usual
base coat, OPI's Nail Envy and once dry I applied two coats of Lady
Venezia '018' – this was one of the polishes my mum bought me back
from holiday one year and I've loved it so hard that it was nearly
impossible to get enough on the brush for two smooth coats! Next I
applied a thin layer of my Pro-FX top coat.
With my clean canvas ready to go I
began dabbing on different shades of acrylic paints, I mostly used
just metallics as I knew they would look pretty when paired with a
matte top coat. I created the robot and all his details using my Pure
Color brush in size #10. I applied another coat of Pro-FX top coat to
seal in the design and finished with my Barry M matte top coat.
I was happy with how this design turned
out, it just looks so happy. I guess the fact it has rainbows could
be another reason why I like it so much, I'm a sucker for a good
rainbow design!
What do you think of this
design? Do you like colourful nail art or softer, muted shades?
Thank you so much for visiting today,
don't forget to leave your voice in the comments! Have a wonderful
weekend my loves, I'll catch you again on Monday!
Love,
Ithi
