Mint Apple Nails

Trying out trends can be fun and I love trying them while adding my own twist to make the trend my own. Mint coloured nail polish is all the rage at this time and while I’m not a huge green nail polish fan, this colour is soft enough to be wearable for me. If you want an inexpensive polish to try out this trend then give Sinful Colors Mint Apple a try. Two coats of this mint green with silver micro-shimmer polish makes for the basic manicure. For my twist, I added an apple on the accent finger. This is taking the concept of Mint Apple quite literally! 



 
The apple was simply painted on with a small nail art brush. If you want to create the apple, you will need a bright red like China Glaze Ruby Pumps, a brown colour like China Glaze Street Chic and dark green colour like Nail Fusion Vintage Green. 

 
Nail art take a little practice so just be patient and use small amounts of your polish at a time. If you apply a top coat over the Mint apple, you can easily wipe away mistakes immediately as they are made. Have fun!
Happy Mint Apples!
XOXO

    The "Mint" shade is my absolute favorite polish shade to wear. Your apple design makes this manicure even more adorable!!

    This looks so cute! I think Mint Apple is my favorite mint shade, i think it's because of the shimmer.

Revlon Sculpting Blush Palette in Pink

I have never been so disappointed in a Revlon product before… until now! Maybe I chose the wrong colour for my skin-tone but there are so many other things about this palette that makes me think I should have bought some more lip butters instead. Let’s start with what I do love about the palette. It’s simple black compact that has the same sleek look as the other Revlon photo-ready items. I find a highlighter, contour shade and blush in one palette is a great idea too. Having more blush colour in terms of quantity with smaller sections for the highlighter and contour makes perfect sense since I will use more of the blush anyway. The colours as they appear in the pan look perfectly coordinated to work with each other. You get a small brush with soft bristles in your kit to ensure you can just pop this in your bag and you’re off.  In the sunlight Now here is where it all goes downhill like Jack and Jill with their pail of water. Let’s start with the swatches which made me think twic

Today's challenge utilizes the technique of dry water marbling to create your pattern. I'm doing a twist of it but doing a needle drag i.e using a needle or any fine point for just a smidgen of swirl to the colours used.
