If a Leopard and Green Metal had a Baby

I got this beautiful green metallic colour by Cherimoya called, aptly enough, Green Metallic. It's such a pretty colour and I really wanted to do some nail art centered around it. I decided to make it the central colour and add just a little bit of colour to it so that it was the star of the show.


I added on leopard spots using Sephora X Perplexed and a mahogany nail pen.


I like the simplicity of this design.


You could jazz this one up if you added some rhinestones or some glitter accents. I wanted to keep it relatively plain though as I think the green metallic nail polish is jazzy enough!

Happy painting friends!

Coordinating Accessories!

I was looking at my iPhone case the other day and thought that it would make some great nail art. It's a black case with white polka dots and has a border of pink. I think the nails have a very cool '80s vibe about them.


I started off with a base of just a basic Revlon black and then added the polka dots using a medium dotting tool and Orly White Out.



I then used one of my bright pink nail pens to draw in the pink area. Here is a pic with my phone:


I love this look but I don't know that I would want my nails to match my phone all the time! I don't want to be "that" girl. I'd be curious to try it in other colours though.

Happy painting friends!
