Nailart of the Day: Bubblegum Pink
May 18, 2015
Hello everyone, I trust everyone's doing great. Today i'm excited to bring you a new kind of post, well on this blog anyways, and its going to be about nails. Although i wear falsies, I realized that most times i am somewhat conservative when it comes to nail colour or design always opting for the neutrals and nudes. I am on a personal challenge to be more creative when it comes to nail art. And to start that challenge here is a simple nail of the day very girly yet easy to re-create.

| Neon Bubblegum Pink and Pop of Glitter |
I recently got these nail colours from Escape Cosmetics, a beauty supply store along the Rawlings Park. They stock an array of nail polishes from Milani Cosmetics and Jordana Cosmetics and these were on sale for 2 cedis and 3 cedis respectively. I couldn't pass up this awesome opportunity and got quite a few, can you blame me?
So unto the nail colour, i chose this Milani Nail Lacquer unfortunately the label has rubbed off but the number is 61. I can describe it as a neon bubblegum pink. Its a pastel colour quite light so i had to apply 3 coats for it to be as opaque.

| How pretty is this Jordana Glitters Nail Polish in Outer Space! |
For a pop of colour on the last finger, i opted to use the Milky shade no 32 (sorry the label is wiped off too) which is also a pastel colour but seems to have some shine to it. Its also light so i applied 2 coats. Then i added one coat each of the Jordana Glitter in Outer space and the Milani Nail Lacquer in Diamond Dazzle which is a fine gold glitter nail lacquer. This combination gives my nails life!
The Milani Nail lacquers gave a glossy finish so i didnt need to apply a top coat. I'm really excited i got to do something out my comfort zone and i love it.
Here are a few tips and tricks:
- Apply each coat and allow to dry before applying another coat
- Do not apply the nail polish to your cuiticles, allow some space between your cuticles and the root or start of your nails for that professionally done finish
- If by mistake you get nail polish unto your cuiticles, take a clean brush, dip into a nail polish remover to clean any mistakes.
I hope you enjoyed this post. Let me know what you think in the comments.
Until the next post,
Keep on being fab,
xoxo,
