Even though I can't make the full transition from Summer to Fall immediately, I already mildly celebrated by creating a fall inspired mani! I made a design that reminded me of the falling leaves.
Keep reading to find out how I created this fall inspired manicure.
I started with Mauving to Manitoba from OPI. I would describe it as a rusty mauve-almost burgundy color. It's a very rich color and a perfect hue for fall.
Then I took a black striper and created leaflike shapes on my nails.
Obviously it doesn't have to be perfect!
After that, I used a makeup sponge to apply a sheer wash of color over the leaf designs. I used green, orange, and yellow and applied them random and overlapping each other.
I think it came out interesting and a little bit outside of the box compared to my usual manis. My goal was for the leaf designs to peek out from the other colors.
How do you think it turned out?
Very pretty creative nails love it! Great job. I am right there with you regarding Fall I love Fall & I am also from Cali & so tired of this heat! :(

Wow that's very amazing and artistic. I love the color combination. I wish I have that creativity too. Doe sit stay long?
ReplyDeleteThank you! With a base coat and top coat it would probably last awhile (a week maybe?). I removed it before it started to chip or wear off.
