Hello Ladies,
Today I have a Valentines Day inspired mani since it is coming up soon. I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Sonic Bloom as my base added some kiss/lip BM stamping.
At first I didn't know 100% on how I was going to incorporate the lips/kiss stamping image. The initial idea I had was to to a white french mani and put a single kiss on select fingers below the French tip. But that had ben done before, I wanted something new. I thought of using Lubu Heels as a French mani with a red kiss, but red over black didn't work.
Right hand
In the end I decided to layer some pink and white kisses on my ring and thumb fingers so it looked like a full nail pattern. I really love the end result!
Right hand
It's a full nail pattern, but when used with similar colours and on a couple of nails is subtle and adds more interest than if i were to add it to each nail. The colours I used were perfect for this, a light pink and white, the two colours played well with each other and gave the design some depth.
I prefered the way that my right hand came out to my left hand. I did my left hand first, so it may have been the practice from that hand that made the right a little nicer.
What do you ladies think :)
Oh how adorable! I love this mani! =)
ReplyDeleteI love this look. That red/pink looks so pretty!
ReplyDeletePretty pretty pretty!!
ReplyDeleteI love the lips pattern
I'm loving this manicure! I could definitely wear this, too... And I'm not a fan of Valentine's Day, so that means a lot. :D
ReplyDeletethanks ladies, I'm glad you like it :) i wish the main colour came out more accurately, not so red, more bright pink with coral unertones
ReplyDeleteThey are so awesome! I love that kiss image so much and it does look wicked as a full stamp.
ReplyDeleteI found that a few of those insta dri that are really pigmented do okay for stamping as well, though they aren't as good as Special polishes for sure.
Cheers!
I like how you layered the kisses into a pattern :) the stamping definitely looks more interesting with more colors
