I am no artist. I watch videos of people like Robin Moses who can effortlessly paint these beautifully details designs on people’s nails with a little bit of envy and a whole lot of admiration. I’m not gonna lie, these blue nails took a bit of time. I probably spent close to 2 hours on them last night while the hubby controlled the remote. He was flipping between baseball and tennis, both of which interest me very little, so I was happy to stare at my nails instead.
I started with Sinful Colors – Cinderella.
This is a baby blue cream with a pink micro-shimmer. It’s SO pretty! It’s pretty sheer, so I did use 4 thin coats to get it opaque.
