Today's post is the first for me. Debbie (from PJ's and Polish) and I planned to do this -twin post a little while ago, and now it's finally live! We're calling this a 'twin post', but instead of doing the exact same mani, we picked a theme and do our own interpretation of it, and the theme is, as the title says, Rainbow Nails! We're both also using chevron minis from Nail Vinyls.
Debbie is one of my close friend in nail polish and blogging world, I'm so stoked to do this twin post with her. She does beautiful swatches, go and see for yourself, and also check out her version of our Rainbow Nails here.
Here's my version. I used a total of 8 colors for this (not including the white base).
I started this mani with a 3 colour gradient over a white base, yellow (Zoya Darcy), blue (Zoya Yummy), and purple (Picture Polish Wisteria), and top coat it before I start with the vinyls. I placed 4 mini chevron vinyls on each nail to create a small zigzag pattern and fit more colours. As the lines are pretty thin, I used a small brush to fill between the vinyls. The shades used are OPI Red My Fortune Cookie, Picture Polish Totes, KB Shimmer Honeydew List, Picture Polish Sky, and OPI Push & Pur-Pull. I just got a fresh new bottle of INM Northern Lights, so I just had to use it! Sparkles make everything 10x better!

ReplyDeleteThanks Deb! :)
DeleteThis is so cool! Took me awhile to realize it was a gradient on the bottom. It looks super intricate.
ReplyDeleteNorthern Lights adds the perfect touch! Great twins manis, you both rocked it!
Thank you! Doing the gradient base was a last moment idea that fortunately turned well! :)
DeleteSuch a cute mani!! Looks like it took a long time to do! I agree about INM Northern Lights!
ReplyDeleteIt actually didn't take that long, considering I was watching netflix while I was doing my nails haha
