Every now and then I create a bit of nail art where I even blow myself away with how well it turned out. I know I sound like I've got a big head right now, but can I just say, damn I did a good job of this and it turned out so much better than I thought it would.
So these are my pretty multi-coloured butterfly nails.
The thumb is a wing that is pink and yellow, the index finger is turquoise and green, the middle finger is light and dark blue, the pinky is magenta and purple, and the ring finger is a combo of all the little butterflies.
These aren't water decals, these are something different, but totally perfect for images over the whole nail. These are completely made at home, which means you can make any colour combination that you can imagine, and not just butterflies. I think what makes these look so pretty is that they are layered over Layla Mercury Twilight - an awesome silver linear holographic polish.
So I'm guessing you all want a tutorial on how to do these nails? Well you see I didn't expect them to turn out so well, so I didn't take any progress photos or anything. So how about this weekend I put together a tutorial about what product I used, where you can get it and how to do it?
Or am I being too full of myself and it's really not that great and your not interested? Let me know.
This looks amazing! Definitely keen for a tutorial :)

DeleteI don't think you are being full of yourself enough! You just created multichromatic and holographic butterfly wings. If I were you I'd be dubbing myself Queen of Holographic Butterflies. Tutorial asap and feel free to gloat a little more!

ReplyDeleteYou HAVE outdone yourself - this is utterly stunning!! My fave is the thumbnail. xo
ReplyDeletewow! please do provide a tutorial. i cant imagine how you did these!
ReplyDeleteI *definitely* want to see a tutorial on these! I thought for sure these were decals, foils, or even full nail polish strips! Then you went and *hinted* that "these are completely made at home"...you evil, evil woman you! Not even the slightest glimmer of a suggestion of *how* they're made...
ReplyDeleteIt is a moral imperative that you create a tutorial. Because these? These are GORGEOUS. I honestly did think those were store-bought stickers of *some* kind. I keep scrolling up to look at them again, and I have no clue how you made them...
Tutorial please, I LOVE butterflies!
