This was inspired by elleandish from her video tutorial on Easy Floral Nails. I've been wanting to do a floral manicure and after seeing her tutorial on this, I knew I had to recreate it. I went with a purple and blue color scheme for my version though, which I think works really well together. This is also for The Lacquer Legion's theme of "reinvention" this month too! #LLreinvention
I started with Barielle Welcome Ohm on my pinky and pointer nail. I dotted a black dot on each nail with Born Pretty Store Sweet Color black nail art liner. Use coupon code YCL91 for 10% off. For the rest of my nails, I have on Salon Perfect Sugar Cube. For the flowers, I dotted dots on each nail with Barielle Welcome Ohm and Barielle A Bouquet For Ava. I dotted and swirled white in each flower center with a toothpick. I added leaves using Barielle Do Unto Others with a toothpick and dotted black dots on the free white spaces. Finished with Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.
I loved how this turned out but I'm a little bummed that I smudged the design a little when I applied the top coat. What do you think of this easy floral manicure?
