Day 310) Nail art fall

Today another fall nail art.

Fall colors used:
- Maybelline Forever Strong Pro 720 Green Miracle (index)
- NYC 335 Red Melody (middle)
- NYC 002 Full Metal Jacket (ring)
- NYC 340 All of the lights (pinky)

I used the ring fnger as accent nail.
I sponged the three colors as base and painted gold simple fall leaves on top of it.
The accent nail is finished with a matte topcoat, the others got a shiny one.
The matte topcoat in combination with the gold overruled all the sponged colors (at least picture wise, in real life the colors are better shown).

Day 269) Abstract nails (fall colors)

Each week we get advertisement leaflets.
They are not only interesting for finding bargains but also for finding inspiration.
The colors for today's nail art are inspired by a leaflet from a clothing store.
I looked at those fall colors together and just wanted to make an easy abstract nail art with it.

So, here it is:

 
 
After the basecoat I applied striping tape by making an "X"

I used the 4 colors from the leaflet to fill up each area.
Then I removed the striping tape and used a striper brush and brown polish to make the "X" again with polish.

Polishes used:
- Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer Limited Edition Eve in Bloom C01 Bloomynous (beige)
- Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer Limited Edition Eve in Bloom C02 Floralilac (plum)
- Etos Long Lasting Nailpolish 124 (teal)
- NYC 208 Pier 17 (cobalt blue)
- Rimmel London 60 seconds 550 Major Brown (dark brown)

Day 262) Abstract fall nail art

Today I have an abstract fall nail art simular to this nail art I did before.
You can also find the tutorial at this previous post.

Material for this nail art:
- Fall colors
- Striping tape
- Scissors
- Nail art brush

Start with applying one of your colors as a base.
Let it dry completely before applying the striping tape.
Use the nail art brush to give the stripes a different color.
