Plaid with OPI Greenwich Village, OPI Hey! Get in Lime! and Sally Henson Nail Art Pen in Black

This manicure is a hand-drawn plaid with OPI Greenwich Village, OPI Hey! Get in Lime! and Sally Henson Nail Art Pen in black. I started with a base coat of Greenwich Village and then drew alternating diamonds using Hey! Get in Lime! and a small paintbrush and the nail art pen in black to create the plaid illusion. Base coat was OPI Nail Envy and top coat was Seche Vite.


Hope you like it!

Orly Gumdrop, Orly Snocone, and Konad M79 & M60

This is my favorite design so far. I got so many compliments on this one...far more than usual. It's Orly Gumdrop, Orly Snocone, and a generic french tip white. I used Konad M79 and M60.

It's my usual base coat of OPI Nail Envy and two coats of Orly Gumdrop. I then used the polka dot pattern from M79 with Konad Special Polish in white. I then painted the diagonal tips in white and then Orly Snocone. The flower was stamped from plate M60 in white, and I then used a small detail paintbrush to draw over it with Orly Gumdrop and placed a dot in the middle in white. I finished the design with my favorite top coat, Seche Vite.

Hope you like it!

Orly Patent Leather, China Glaze Cherish and Konad M70

This manicure is a french tip in Orly Patent Leather, with a design in China Glaze Cherish from Konad plate M70 over the tip, and a smile line drawn in Cherish as well. I like this one in theory, but I didn't wear it for very long (like I removed it right after the pictures). It seemed a little bit too much St. Patty's Day for June.

Orly Sheer Beauty, Patent Leather & Konad M81

This manicure is 3 coats of Orly Sheer Beauty with a stamp pattern from Konad Plate M81. I then filled the tips from the top of the stamp to the tip of the nail with Orly Patent Leather. I really enjoyed this design, so much in fact that I also used the same design in Orly Greenwich Village and OPI Designer Series Fantasy. I got lots of compliments on this one... I hope you like it, too!
