I loved the geometric nails I did a while back so I wanted to to another one as a accent nail instead. I've also been into adding in a texture accent nail to my manicures too.
I started with Julep Nail Therapy as my base coat. I have Nicole by OPI Alex By The Books on my pinky and Sephora by OPI Ocean Love Potion on my pointer and thumb. For my ring nail, I have Milani White On The Spot. Taking stripping tape and the previous two colors, I did a geometric design with a gradient effect to it. For my middle nail, I used Love & Beauty Blue Jewel. Then for the thumb, I did a polka dot gradient. Finished with Seche Vite Top Coat except on my texture nail.
I'm in love with what stripping tape can do for me for nail art designs. There so much possibilities. What do you think of my blue and green skittle manicure?
