Julep is hosting a nail art contest showcasing their favorite Spring inspired manicures on their social media sites. I was asked to participate and it sounded like a fun idea. So, here is my Spring themed nail art for this challenge. I hope everyone likes it!
Started with China Glaze Re-fresh Mint on all the nails except for the ring. With OPI Pink Friday and Julep Hayden, I applied them using a fan brush. I used Julep Sasha for the ring nail and created flowers using that color on the rest of the nails with a dotting tool. I used Julep Courteney to dot the center of each flower. The glitter I used is Gloss n' Sparkle Sour Candy on the ring accent nail. Finished with a coat of Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat.
I was in the mood to create some flowers and what better time to wear them than in Spring. What do you think of my Spring inspired nail art?
