#bomnailartjune: Lady Bugs!

Hi y'all! I'm back again with nail art from an Instagram nail art challenge! The #bomnailartjune challenge! You can search up that hashtag on the app or website (I think?) to see what everyone else came up with for today's theme of Lady Bugs. 

I was much more excited about these in my head than I was on my nails. They just didn't quite some out the way I imagined they would. For the base color, I used Wet N Wild I Need A Refresh-Mint and the rest of the colors were done using acrylic paint. Just some dots with a dotter to get the shapes and pattern of the little lady bugs. This was so cute in my head but didn't translate perfectly to the nail. Oh well, maybe next time?

#bomnailartjune Instagram challenge: Butterfly!

Hi y'all! I found a challenge on instagram this afternoon. I'm actually a day late in starting it, but it looked like it would be a lot of fun to try and do! I definitely need something to give me some inspiration in painting my nails. I get a little tired of just doing the same thing all the time. The first days challenge is for butterflies. It's been a while since I've tried butterfly wings, thought I'd give it a shot. Only as an accent though.

For this looke I used Rimmel London Green With Envy and Sunny Days, and NYC Palm On The Beach. I painted Green With Envy as my base color. Then on my accent/wing nail I sponged on all three colors. Adding each until they blended and looked the way I wanted them to. On the rest of the nails I made a half circle in white acrylic paint. Then another line above that of the white. Then I used black to make the silhouette of a butterfly. I think it came out super cute!
