A day at the pool

I had two ideas for this months theme for Cyw’s “Mottomonat” – “Pool Party”. But since I didn’t manage to do both, I thought I combine them to a skittle-like look and call it “A day at the pool”… 😀

The water-looking nails are quite simple, I started with a middle, slighty aqua colored, blue and saran-wrapped a darker blue and a sheer white on top, and then just added some water decals.

For the stamped nails, I used what felt like a ton of polishes. 😀 First two coats of a blue-ish mint as base, then turquoise glitter, then yellow glitter and yellow shimmer to get a gradient effect and then some more pink shimmer. As you can see from the picture, my tips were quite thick after that. 😉

But I love how all these polishes came together and just sparkle light mad in every color of the rainbow. 🙂

I will be traveling starting tomorrow, so there won’t be a post next week – see you all in two weeks! 🙂
