Orange franken with accent nails (I’m still trying to figure out what to call these).
~Polishes used for accent nails: Nubar Yellow Primrose (base), Orange franken, Essie Watermelon, Color Club Yum Gum, and Color Club Almost Famous.
Looks like tie-dyed stripes to me! Or maybe fabric fibers… Tagging it as tie-dye until a different name is found.
(via Lab Muffin: NOTD: Glitter wedge tape mani)

Neon + glitter = BEST COMBO EVER! I got the idea for the combo from my sister Summer, who texted me a picture of these nails that she did a couple days ago and I loved them so much that I couldn’t shake the longing to do some neon/glitter nails. The design is something that my brain vomited onto paper when I was doodling last night, I ended up really liking it actually. It was SO hard to get a good pic of these nails where the neon and glitter both looked awesome but I think I did okay in the end. Still loving those CG Prismatics too, swoon.

Lace nails. I picked up a nice, thin paintbrush along with some acrylic paint today, so I really wanted to do something that involved more detail. I still need some practice, but even by the time I got to my thumb I was already getting the hang of it!
