I'm Ready For Spring Skittle

Tuesday, April 8, 2014

Spring is suppose to come but the weather in Canada where I live is still a bit cold. Its not really warming up but there are some days where the sun comes out for a while before it starts to get cloudy again. Here's a nail art skittle I created that's calling for Spring to arrive soon.

I'm Ready For Spring Skittle Nail Art
Jessica, Salon Perfect, Spoiled by Wet n' Wild, China Glaze, Sally Hansen

On the pinky, I used Jessica Tangerine Dreamz, Salon Perfect Sugar Cube on the ring and thumb, Spoiled by Wet n' Wild Plastic Flamingo on the middle, and China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint on the pointer. With a mix of these colors, I created different designs on each nail. For tools, I used a dotting tool, striping tape, and a fan brush. Finished with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat.

I like how this skittle turned out. By using the same colors for the whole look, they went well together. I'm still loving that fan brush technique too since depending on the colors I use, it gives me such different looks. What do you think of this skittle manicure?

    1. Thank you! Yeah, by using the same color scheme throughout, all the designs turned out well together. The thumb is a favorite of mine too, can't go wrong with a dotticure in my opinion :)

  9. This manicure really makes me crave the sun! It's the same here in England, one minute the sun is out but then it goes and hides again! Lovely mani and the colour choice and design are gorgeous xx

  12. Every time I see the fan brush techinique, I want to try it out.... then forget by the time it comes to do my next manicure. These colors are so bright and cheery. I don't think you can look at this manicure and NOT be happy <3
