Re-creation - Day 11 of the January Nail Art Challenge

Hellerrrr!!

Hope everybody's having a good Sunday.

I'm back with Day 11 of the Challenge and feeling proud I've kept up so well so far.

So for this theme I chose to recreate a mani I did almost a year ago and posted on my Instagram here. It's really simple and a go to when I want something other than a basic mani but I have no idea what to do.

Products Used:
Orly Bonder
HK Girl Topcoat

I started with two coats of Light Brown Caramel. This colour is the perfect nude for girls my skin tone. It's a matte formula but nothing a coat of HK Girl Topcoat can't fix. However it shows up EVERY ridge in your nails which left me a little disappointed. 

I then taped off my nails with my Teisom straight nail vinyls to get the triangular shape and filled in with Cardamom.






After than I 'outlined' the triangle with my gold sequins I got from the Bornpretty store. They came in a set of various coloured glitter and the price was reasonable. The Bornpretty store also ships to Barbados which is a plus. My stuff usually takes a month to arrive.



sorry about the cuticles, my eczema is acting up so my hands have been really dry :(


I love the contrast of the shiny finish of the Cardamom against the matte finish of Light Brown Caramel.

This was my first time using Barry M polishes as they are not sold in Barbados and I'm really impressed. The quality of the polishes is superb. Pigmentation, consistency is on point so I will definitely try to get some more.

Hope you like it. Until next time...
