Hi! Hope you’ve had/ are having a good day!
Prickly Pear by Barry M is making another appearance on my nails but with a new look! Prickly Pear is a mega (Will.i.am voice). I mean, just perfection and especially right now it’s really hard to put it down!
This design is a nod to this white nail art design I did. Though I mixed everything up, from the vibrancy of the colours, to turning the triangles from the cuticles to the tips. I used New York Noir by Nails Inc for the Black and I must say it’s a great black to have! Lovely and opaque in just one coat and applies evenly with an average drying time.
The Gelly H Shines are beautiful, but aren’t the easiest when it comes to layering with nail art because of the thicker consistency. I had to wait quite a lot longer than usual to keep it from smudging. To break it up a bit, I did an asymetrical triangle on the thumb, but I wouldn’t really call it an accent nail. It’s not as gelly-tastic as it could be because I didn’t use the how to cheat a gel manicure method, I was using Prickly Pear more for its colour. It has an almost unzipped feel, what do you think?
