KOTD: Oranges


Hey everyone! I have been a suffering from the winter blues a little bit, so I decided to do a really fun mani inspired by oranges!

I didn't really know how to make it look "pitted" like oranges do without denting the polish, so I konaded a gold onto the orange so that it would be more subtle. I think that it turned out super cute!

I used m57's leopard print to make the oranges look pitted. The orange I used was OPI Brights Power and the gold is China Glaze Twenty-four K. Do you think that it looks like oranges, or am I simply delusional?

Nail Art: Strawberry Nails


I was inspired by Nails by Asami to try my hand at strawberry nails! I love how it turned out, but for some reason my dark green looks black. :( It's dark green, I swear! I think that it is because I put it over red. Oh well, it's still cute in my eyes!

I used OPI Big Apple Red and matted it as the base color. Then I used OPI Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow as the leaves. OPI Alpine Snow and a dotting tool helped to make the little seeds. Does it look alright? Would you like to see more fruit inspired looks? Enjoy!

Nail Art: Watermelon Nails

Hello everyone! Sorry about posting two nail arts in a row but I really had to share this one! Isn't it cute?!? I got so many compliments when I wore it! I used OPI Fuchsia Fling and mattified it with the Essie Matte Topcoat. Then the rind is OPI Green-wich Villiage with stripes of OPI Here Today... Aragon Tomorrow, and the seeds are OPI Black Onyx. I hope that you like them! :)
