Summer Challenge: Fruits

Hiya beautiful, I'm back with our Summer Challenge. Today's challenge is "Fruits." I went with a single fruit. I tried to go a little outside the box, but it seems all the fruits have been done. Even kiwi! C'mon, I thought I had ya'll with that one!

So I went with this one.

Fruit Mani
Haha, I keed, I keed.

Here is the real one... Can you guess what fruit this is?

glitter obsession: Dragon Fruit Mani
Summer Challenge: Fruit Mani

It's dragon fruit! I did a Dragon Fruit manicure! Be nice, it's my first frame mani and that is a hard one to do! I should've done the red/pink first, then the white, but I did it the other way around and it's kind of a hot mess. And this is the redo!

Products Used:
Sally Hansen White On!
Black Acrylic Paint
Migi Nail Art Pen Jelly Red (unnamed)
Savvy French White White
Clear polish

Below is the original, which I thought was awful, but now that I look at it, a little clean up and it would've been golden. Maybe even better than the second. Oh well, life happens.

  4. Haha good one! I wanted to be unique too...I almost did pomegranate, but them I got lame and did limes. It turns out limes are actually kind of hard to paint. I was shaking like crazy doing all those little lines! I love this mani, though - so cute and creative!

  15. i cudnt think of dragon fruit at all was lost in thinking how well black spots on white looked!!

  16. Frame manicures look SO hard though, so I'd still say both were a success in my books! Although I do prefer the satsuma mani. So much more sophisticated.....

  17. The orange manicure is hilarious, hahaha.

    I like how you used grey and black for the seeds, so it looks like some of the seeds are just peeking through the white part, like in a real dragon fruit. :D
