Let's continue with my turquoise obsession...

Ok, so as I stated in my previous post I AM currently obsessed with turquoise nail polish. Right now I'm all over China glaze's "Aquadelic," it's just so pretty and I am trying all these different color combinations I'm loving!!
Here is another color combo I created with that nail polish.
I really like the combination of white, turquoise & silver. For the white, I used Sinful Colors nail polish in "Snow me White" and for the silver I used Kiss Nail art in the color "Silver glitter" which has a really thin brush that you can maneuver pretty easily. You could probably find them at your local drugstore, I got mine at Walgreens when they were having a sale on them. On the middle finger I used this Silver Nail Art Decorating kit by Essence, which I got at Ulta. I used the one that looks like confetti, with a dotting tool, clear nail polish and a lot of patience I picked the confetti up one by one and placed them in a somewhat straight vertical line down the center of my finger after I applied a bit of clear nail polish so that it would have something to adhere to. It was a little time consuming but I was really happy with the outcome. Plus I really enjoy spending time doing my nails, so the time it takes to do them doesn't bother me.
Here's a closer look at them. For the triangle shapes I use tape to form the shape and then fill in with the desired nail polish color, I wait about 10 minutes to make sure its dry before I pull the tape off and usually it comes out good. I then go back over the sides of the triangles with a thin nail art brush and the other color to create a nice contrast between the base color and the triangle shape color.
Well, I hope you enjoyed this look. I'll be posting more of them up soon. Thanks for checking out my latest post :)
