Precious Stone Abstract Nail Art feat. Barry M Olive

Hello lovelies,

Here's the thing - I've reviewed Barry M Olive, a pale olive green polish that looked just plain ugly to me. That got me thinking - what can I do with this polish and turn it into nice manicure?

I've decided to do 'precious stone' inspired design which is a bit similar to this watercolour manicure I've done before. However, this time I've used acrylic paint and overlapped instead of mixed the colours...

As I mentioned earlier, I've used Barry M Olive as a base colour and then I've used acrylic paints for the nail art. Despite the overlapped layers, the design still reminds me of precious stone/gemstone which I really love!

 

So what do you think? Did I manage to turn ugly polish into nice manicure? ;)

 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

I love it. Thanks for sharing -- green isn't normally by go-to color but you rocked this.

Sooo beautiful! All those shades coordinate so well together. Funny how an "ugly" polish can still look good.
