Pretty Pastels

Hi NaiLovelies!

I'm back again to show you another recent manicure. It was my birthday a couple of weeks ago so I fancied something feminine to wear to see me ring in another year.

I am a lover of pink and a huge lover of skittlette manicures so I figured I would combine the two as I knew this mani was going to be on my nails for a while I figured it should be something I wouldn't grow tired of after ermmm a mere 30 minutes!

I created this manicure by applying three coats of IBD Ooh La Lace and two coats of Ivory Tower which I applied over a single coat of IBD Carte Blanche to make Ivory Tower more opaque, I also applied IBD Calm Oasis using four thin coats, I can't remember it taking four coats when I swatched it but this time around it took that number of coats in order to get the finish I wanted.

To tie the manicure together I stamped all of the nails apart from the ring fingers using Moyra Florality 1 which is a gorgeous plate containing lots of pretty and delicate floral images which are perfect for this type of subtle and delicate manicure.

I added some bling to bring this manicure to life with the help of Magpie Millie which I dabbed over a couple of coats of IBD Ivory Tower.

I am really happy with how this manicure turned out! It so happens it was also rather a big hit with my clients who all commented on how much they liked it and wanted it on their nails.
