Roughled Turquoise...

Hi Everyone! Today I would like to show you a manicure which I consider a bit of a happy accident. I had been wearing the Nicole by OPI On What Grounds? for a few days after swatching it and as I often do, I decided to play around with nail art before removing it. It always gives me the freedom to try various things without the fear that I need to make it perfect. Most often I end up with a different design on each nail. The ones that turn out well get stored somewhere in my brain to try out later and the whole mess usually gets promptly removed. This time however, I liked the idea enough to try it out  right away, despite the visible (at least to me) nail growth. I think this looks a bit like marble or turquoise...


As I mentioned, the base of this manicure is Nicole by OPI On What Grounds? from the Roughles lacquers. I stamped the pattern from CICI&SISI plate 02 three times, first using Maybelline Bold Gold, then KleanColor Black and finally Wet 'n Wild White Creme. I tried to pick up different areas of the design and occasionally incomplete sections of it to ensure that each nail was different. To maintain the textured look and feel, I did not use a top coat for this manicure...





I would love to know what you think of this nail art! Leave me a comment below :)

Thanks for looking!
Anutka :)
