Hello lovelies,

How are you all? I'm feeling good, saw Bill Bailey live couple days ago and it was such fun! For those who don't know who Bill Bailey is, he's a British comedian, actor and also a talented musician :)

Another month has passed and it's time for Paint All The Nails nail art challenge! This month's theme is ANIMAL PRINT and I'm doing FAWN PRINT NAILS! I wanted to do these for years and now I finally had a reason. It was a super rush job as I did them last night, I didn't want to miss this challenge.

So let's have a look at what I've created...

Here's how I did the nails:

 

Firstly I've painted all nails with a coat of OPI A-Piers To Be Tan. Then I sponged on Zoya Louise, Nyssa, Spencer and OPI A-Piers To Be Tan on all nails creating a rough gradient that mimics the fawn's fur. Then I've used white acrylic paint and tiny nail art brush and painted on the spots. I wanted them to look realistic so each spot is feathered so it looks a bit like fur. I hope I did a good job :) All is sealed with Sienna Byron Bay Lightning Top Coat. This is a brand new top coat I'm testing and so far I'm loveing it! It didn't smudge the design, dried super fast and didn't shrink the polish. So far so good, review will come soon!

The manicure itself from start to finish took about 2 hours (one hand) so it was quite time-consuming but I'm loving the result and enjoying wearing it. I hope you like it too and let me know what you think of the tutorial!

 

Have a lovely day and check out the animal print manicures from other bloggers below and the hashtag #paintallthenailsanimalprint on social media :)

 

 

Paint All The Nails Presents Animal Print - Fawn Print Nail Art & TUTORIAL

 Hello lovelies,

 

Just a quick post today with an older manicure and my then square nails ;) Also, I've been featured in a YouQueen article listing 13 nail art bloggers so if you're looking for more artists to follow, check out the article here.

 

Let's check out the nails..

This was a very simple and elegant manicure where I've used two coats of Barry M Pink Lemonade from the Gelly line as a base colour and stamping images from Bundle Monster Festival stamping plate collection over it. I would like to point out that generally most of the polishes from the Gelly line are fabulous! They are pigmented, glossy and create a gel-like finish so I can recommend them!

 

I've chosen white colour to complement the soft pink shade of Barry M Pink Lemonade and added dots to nails without stamping. The ring finger and pinkie have beautifully ornate feathers design (plate BM-S308) on them and the for thumb nail I've chosen a dream catcher stamp (BM-S301). Hope you like what I did there ;)

 

Have a great rest of the day! Lucie x
