Week 19: Floral Mani

Again, not what is supposed to be done today, but I'm out of town again! I'm a busy bee!! In the spirit of trying to catch up, here's another weekly challenge that I did recently.

I found this design on a site I love, and ya'll may know it already - Simply Rins.

floral, daisies, flowers, free hand, nail art

Product List:
  • Essence Wanna Be My Sunshine (shimmery lemon yellow)
  • Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure (flakies)
  • OPI Be A Dahlia Won't You (hot pink foil/glass fleck)
  • White Acrylic Paint

Based on Simply Rins' design seen here. She also has a great photo tutorial in that post. Hers is, of course, 1000x time better than mine, but it was the inspiration nonetheless!

Hope you like!

Some products mentioned in this post were provided for review.

      Thanks! I liked that the yellow made it summery but the flakies added that extra dimension to it!

    1) Thank you so very much for your kind words in the comments you left on my blog. You have seriously made me whole week. :) You and your blog are definitely one of my favorites and I always enjoy reading you precious comments! I wish my computer wasn't so incompetent (I'm hoping for another one very soon), otherwise I'd be blowing your blog up with comments allll the time. :P

    2) This mani is BEAUTIFUL. You did such a good job and the colors/design go together wonderfully. Love it!

      Isn't it neat? That happened when I added the flakies.

      Me too! She's fantastic. Her mani's are always flawless. So jealous. But thanks! I thought about adding another coat of flakie on top to make everything shimmer but then I decided the flowers popped a little more without it.
