Summer Nails - A Day At The Beach

This time for the #stnchallenges the theme for Summer Nail Art is "A Day At The Beach". I have some fond memories of times I've spent at a beach and the ones I cherish the most are the ones from Maldives. The pristine beaches, the gorgeous blue sea, and the calm all around. And so my nail art was an attempt to reminisce those times.

I used Maybelline Color Show Cool Blue on the entire nail (just did one coat) and then used sponging technique using Cool Blue and Bold Gold (Maybelline Color Show) on all the nails.

Then I used my MoYou London Stamping Plate Suki Collection 04, picked out random wave pattern type images and stamped using a local white polish mixed with a local deep blue polish. The polishes were mixed on the image itself so that the wave would get a random hint of blue when I swiped off the polish using the scraper. On the accent finger I have actually done dual stamping (two different patterns stamped over one another)

Once the stamping was done I again went and sponged some Bold Gold on the tips of the nails. Once everything was dry I stuck on 3D stickers from essence on two nails and painted them golden using Bold Gold

I wish I could relive the time I spent in Maldives but till then I'll make do by staring at my nails (sigh!)

Hope you all liked this nail art. Continue to show your love by sharing and liking my posts and don't forget to leave a comment!

PS: I know I'm doing a lot of nail art using Maybelline, its just because I find these polishes to be of good quality without burning a hole in the pocket - these are not sponsored in any way :)
