Mosaic Tiles

Hiii! Hope everyone is having a good Sunday!

I was in the mood for a fancy-ish design recently unlike the simple stuff I was feeling the past few weeks so I pulled out some stuff and got to work. I've seen this design on several Instagram pages in past months and figure I'd give it a try.

Products Used:

ORLY Bonder Basecoat

Wet N Wild French White Cream

OPI I Just Can't Cope-acabana

OPI DS Reflection

OPI DS Extravagance

ORLY Luxe

Glisten & Glow HK Girl

Striping Tape

#00 Nail Art Brush

Tweezers

Scissors

Clean-up Brush

Here's how it went down.

I did one kinda thick coat of French White Cream on my middle and ring fingers and went over with a thin coat of HK Girl. I wanted it to dry quickly so I could apply the striping tape.. Be sure to wait until the base is completely dry before applying the tape. Once that was dry I applied striping tape horizontally and then diagonally in a criss-cross style to create little triangles on the nail. I then filled in each little triangle with DS Reflection, DS Extravagance and Luxe in as random a design as possible. Once all the triangles were done I pulled off the striping tape and went over with a final coat of HK Girl.. 

My other naked nails got two coats of I Just Can't Cope-acabana and everything was then sealed with HK Girl.

Here's the finished product. It reminded me of mosaic tiles hence the name of the post.

Hope you like it. Until next time...

Match OOTD - Day 28 of the January Nail Art Challenge

Hi Guys

I'm a day late with this post and for that I apologize. I was just wayyy too tired and miserable last night to do anything. Came home starving and with a headache and was in bed before 8.

Its day 28 of the January Challenge and this is the second last before the end. I'm quite pleased I stuck with this even though posting to this schedule became a bit more difficult when I started back my dance classes.

Today's theme was "Match OOTD". This was actually very simple as the majority of my wardrobe is black or white. I decided weeks ago when I realised this day fell on a week day that I was wearing my black and white polka dot dress. (If the 28th was a Sunday this would be a completely different post lol).

Anywho...on to the mani.

Products Used:
Orly Bonder
Wet n' Wild - Ebony Hates Chris
OPI - Alpine Snow

HK Girl Top Coat
Dotting tool

I started with two coats of Ebony Hates Chris followed by my HK Girl. Once that was dry I added dots using Alpine Snow and a dotting tool. And that's it.

Hope you liked it! Until next time...
