Nails of Nature

After staring at work panels constantly pinning the colors of blue, pink, yellow and green on my screen and into my brain, I became hopeless infected. The brain starts to tick that way, and the colors take over every shred of common sense left until nothing remains.

So I decided to give myself a treat during the weekends and wanted to paint the town, I mean the nails red. Or the colors picked out below -

That's right! Those colors are haunting me! But I only realized it after finishing a 40 minutes nail-painting session.

IMG_7820What you need-
- Deep blue, Hot Pink and Sunny Yellow (all from FaceShop)
- Jade Green from Etude House
- Base Coat and Top Coat of your choice
- Cotton Sticks (ear-cleaning types)
- Nail polish Remover
- A4 Scrape Paper (except newspaper)



Beauty Regime:
1. Coat nail with 2 layers of Base Coat
2. Color the nails green, evenly
3. Add a French Twist of blue at the edge of the nails
4. Dab a swash of yellow on the paper and pick up some with the cotton stick
5. Dot the nails, at random positions for each nail to point where you would paint flowers
6. Dab another swash of pink and pick up some with the cotton stick
7. Using it like a brush, dab pink onto the nails to create the design of a flower
8. Don't wait too long before the green dries properly, or step 5-7 would prove to be difficult
9. Finish with 2 layers of Top Coat for each nail
10. You can refresh with another Top Coat after every three days if you wish to keep these nails for a longer period of time
