Ever saw an eye-catching design that you just
couldn’t get out of your head? If you haven’t joined the Beautylish community, you should… now! This nail design was
inspired by a beautylish babe called Tereska H. Check here for her
design.
I took
the concept of her design and used red and pink colours in mine instead of her
original blue and white. My pink swirls are also a bit tighter and packer more
into my nails than hers, but you get the idea!
It’s
really simple to do! Just paint your nails with a base coat; I used China
Glaze’s strong adhesion base coat before adding two coats of China Glaze Ruby
Pumps (deep classic red with sparkle). To make clean up of the lines easier,
add your top coat as well.
Next all
you will need is a Sally Hansen nail art pen in a contrasting colour. I used
light pink. Just add random swirls onto your nails. The points of the pens are
really precise but in case of any mistake you can wipe away quickly since you
have your top coat down as a protective barrier. All done!
Hope you
enjoyed this really simple manicure and be sure to check out the beautylish
website for some more inspiring designs!
Happy Delicate Designing!

I love how this looks. I just purchased a nail art pen but wasn't sure what to do with it, lol.
ReplyDeleteI also use them for dots and lines, the possibilities are endless!
Deleteomg i love this I saw the blue and white one and i think i've been obsessing for days over it. I love yours esp the color choice. I've always visited beautylish and browsed but only joined cause my sister insisted lol
ReplyDeleteOh I made a few friends over at beautylish and of course their articles are very informative, but the looks are what keeps me going back! So inspiring!
DeleteThis is sooooo pretty! I just bought one of those nail art pens...I'm excited to try this! :)
ReplyDeleteNow that I think about it, didn't I meet you on Beautylish? lol. Yes you should try it, really simple. Oh forget to say you don't want to use too much of this product, try to get the swirls in one go instead of going over them multiple times since the polish tend to crack if you use too much!
DeleteI'm not a hardcore nail design fanatic but this is a simple yet gorgeous design that I just might try ;)
ReplyDeleteHonestly dawn, I was just a regular old polish gal but since i starting trying out nail art, I really like it! But if you realize from my previous nail art posts, I'm still just doing simple art, nothing elaborate yet! I wanna see yours
DeleteThis is gorgeous :) The design is so simple yet so elegant!
ReplyDeleteI could never accomplish this on my left hand...
