Bright summer flowers

 

 

 

The base color is Catrice 400 Blue Cara Ciao and I sponged random areas with Catrice 520 Apropos Apricot. I painted the bright coral/salmon flowers with acrylic paint over the sponged areas, making it look a bit like they are on clouds. Finally I top coated with Seche Vite.

I wore this mani 2 days – it’s a real smurf nail blue, I’m happy I use base coat, should have used 2 coats.

Grundfarven er Catrice 400 Blue Cara Ciao og jeg duppede tilfældige områder med Catrice 520 Apropos Apricot. Jeg malede de koral/laksefarvede blomster med akrylfarve hen over de spongede områder, så de fik virkning som skyer. Til sidst lagde jeg min toplak, Seche Vite.

Jeg havde denne mani på i to dage – og denne blå giver virkelig smølfeblå negle på trods af base coat.

All colors are shown in 2 coats. They dry medium fast to fast, and the nude obviously needs more coats to give opacity. Over the next weeks I'll show you all colors as a base for some kind of nail art.

400 Blue Caro Ciao is a strong medium blue creme polish. It's beautiful - but stained my nails terribly!

240 Sold Out For Ever is a very pale mint/blue color with subtle shimmer, 2 coats of this delight gives full opacity.

700 Birdie Reloaded is a bold and bright yellow with light shimmer.

520 Apropos Apricot is like the name suggests an apricot color, and it has a very subtle shimmer. It is NOT a two coater as the bottle say, first coat is very streaky, and the second is however a little less, 3 coats probably is needed if you want to wear it on it's own.

800 Heavy Metallilac - is just that, a metallic purple with shimmer, 2 coats gives opacity - I love it!

02 Cotton Candy At Eiffel Tower is a very pale nude that dries with an extremely shiny finish. 3 or  4 coats gives full opacity.
