Holly Garland

Hey!

So I have opened up an Instagram account where I have been posting my manicures every week (nervy_nails). I have also been following other nail accounts where I can see manicures and get ideas. I saw a manicure on an account called Hanninator and that's where I got my inspiration for this week's mani. You will need a sheer shimmery nail color, a dark green nail color, a silver nail color, a berry or red nail color , a nail art brush and a dotting tool.

I started with a base coat of OPI nail envy maintenance. I then did a coat of Sei Bella Crystal Sands. I then used Icing Heavy Metal to paint the white part of my nails at the tips. I then used Julep Hoch and a nail art brush to paint the garland. I did this by painting arrowheads, very close to another, going horizontally, along the line where the silver and shimmery nail polishes meet on the nail. I then used Sei Bella Crushed Berries and a small dotting tool to paint on berries along the garland. Once everything was dry, I finished my manicure with a fast drying top coat of INM Out the Door.

Way cute, right?! The original manicure I saw online had used white tips and there were white dots on the berries, but I had no white nail polish so this is what I came up with instead. I also added the shimmer to the base color since I didn't have a nude nail polish to use. I really really liked this and it wasn't so hard either, just needed to pace myself when painting on that garland. I hope you enjoyed this manicure and I will see you next time!
