I have done my 4 manis for the month of June back in april, when we had awful weather, so my pics are a little dull, and I apologize. But I'm happy I did that in advance, because right now, I do not have time to do nail art! I just paint my nails once per week, and at most use some topper for an accent, and beg for it to last 7 days, lol!
So as you know this challenge allows using 3 colours per month, and all manis for June have to be done with at least two of the following: Pink, purple, red. So here are the polishes I chose to represent my colours: Essie Limited addiction for red, Essence lilac is my style for purple (thank you Christine!) and for pink: Bourjois Peach and love (though they should have called this one "Peach nightmare")..
For this first mani I went with a design I had pin ages ago and I never ened up doing it, until I had the chance for this challegne. It is "mosaic nails" using a gold base and irregulars spots of colour.
This is a very, very simple technique, I first ainted two coats of Essie Beyond cosy, and then applied the colours using the regular polish brush instead of dotting tools because I wanted it to be irregular shaped and not dots. I finished the mani applying a coat of seche vite.
I What do think of the final result? I would love to repeat this with other colours! Let my know your thoughts.
And of course don't forget to pay a visit to the lovely lady's in the challenge listed below!
Love you my sweeties!

I'm happy you did this before hand also, because... it's awesome! Love that silver base and I love that it's so simple to achieve! ;)
ReplyDeleteHope you will soon get some free time, Natalia, to relax and have extra time to do your beautiful manis more often back again! **
It's like animal print meets polka dot meets ombre effect, well done :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this! It's simple but not simplistic. :) Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love it - putting it on a silver base changes it from simple mosaic to gemstones! So pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteIt kind of looks like a jeweled crocodile to me! Which is lovely!
ReplyDeleteQué bonito te quedó, buena combinación
ReplyDeleteI like all three colours, especially Essence lilac :-) Beautiful mosaic! :-)
ReplyDeletewow..its so beautiful, it looks like dotted ombre.. :)
ReplyDeleteThis was fun, I haven't seen it before! :D I'd love to see it in blue or green. Must recreate this myself too :)
ReplyDeleteSalut Nati, I just love this mani, you amaze me again and again with your apparently boundless creativity. I am so sorry to not have commented on your Blog lately but I am just SUPER busy, I am also back at work 100 % and working therapeutic stuff, but I do check your posts, mind you - meanwhile I send you lots of love - Bisous xxx
