NOTD: Vintage Rose Garden

 I love me some floral nail art. It's my go-to nail art design when I'm running low on inspiration or try something new that didn't quite work out as well as I'd planned. I really love this mani, although the cuticle drag from the base color leaves something to be desired. Still, it's a win in my book. How can you go wrong with yellow and purple?








The yellow I used is Lemon Icecream from Barry M. As I mentioned before (and as you can see), I did get a good deal of cuticle drag with this one. The consistency on all of the Barry M Icecream colors is a bit odd. They're kind of a combo of a jelly and a creme, which ends up being sort of....milky? They cover exceptionally well though and the colors are fantastic. The purple I used for my ring finger and as one of the colors on the roses is Cheshire from Funky Fingers. It's a gorgeous color with a neon finish, which makes it difficult to photograph. The lighter purple color that I used on the roses is Berry Icecream from Barry M.

Are any of you partial to the floral manis? Show me some links of your work! :)

All the chicks on facebook are doing fruit nails and they're awesome. I tried to do a pineapple mani, but my patience gave out and I decided to go for something more stylized. Here is what I came up with:




I love green nail polish and I just don't wear it enough. I also love yellow nail polish and I don't wear that enough either. So this was my excuse to combine both and use some of that striping tape that I love so much at the same time. For the green I used Who the Shrek are You? from OPI. The yellow I used is Lemon Icecream from Barry M.
