Braided Rose Nail Art

I decided that I wanted some pretty spring time nails! And here they are! 😀

I started by making the rose decals, for these I used

• Sally Hansen – Grass Slipper
• China Glaze – Near Dark
• Rimmel – Double Decker Red
• Sinful Colors – A Slice To Go (striper)
• China Glaze – White On White
• Color Club – Top Coat

I applied a coat of white on white over my base coat, for two reasons the first so that the greens would pop and the second being that green stains my nails more than any other colour!

For the braid I used

• Zoya – Logan
• China Glaze – Agro
• L’oreal – Owl’s Night
• China Glaze – White On White

After I finished my braided nails I ended up having to do some washing up (ugh) and the tips of my nails ended up with a few little chips 😦 Booo!

I applied my rose decals with a little bit of color club top coat, then sealed them in with another coat over the top.

I think the greens I chose where a little too dark but it still looks pretty 🙂
