Happy Wednesday!
Hope you all had a lovely Easter and long weekend!
Today, I'm going to be covering my own little version of a tutorial I found the other day, on Distressed Nail Art.
The original tutorial can be found here: (Click me!)
I used completely different colours for my look though, as I wanted to keep the colours pastel and Summery!
The polishes I used were:
*Models Own Banana Split (Scented Polish)
*Rimmel London Lasting Finish- Tangerine
*Rimmel London Lasting Finish Pro- Baby Pink
*Rimmel London Cocktail Colour- Hawaiian Punch
*Barry M- Black Multi Glitter
So, here is my quick and simple version of this very easy nail polish look!
First, start with a base colour.
I used Models Own's Banana Split, and it is actually a lot paler than it seems in these pictures, I promise! It took 3 coats to become nice and opaque.
And repeat this step with a few more colours! I used Rimmel London's Tangerine next-
Followed by Rimmel London's Hawaiian Punch!
And then finally, use a dark polish to tie the look all together! The tutorial suggests black, but I wanted something a little more jazzy, so I found my Barry M "Black Multi Glitter" polish, which is a glorious black polish with little multi-coloured sparkles in it. It's so beautiful, I plan to do a swatch post of it sometime in the near future! (Though, the name is so un-inventive!)
You can see the sparkles just coming through on the black of the nails- it's lovely!
And of course, don't forget to do a layer of top coat to seal in the design to keep it looking awesome for days!

Next, choose a colour- I'm using Rimmel London's Baby Pink, and wipe off all of the polish from the brush. (There'll actually still be some on) Then press/swipe it on your nail, to get something like this:
And of course, don't forget to do a layer of top coat to seal in the design to keep it looking awesome for days!
I'm plan to try this mani backwards one day- starting with a dark base and finishing with a pale colour, so that will be fun when I get to it! :D
I hope you enjoyed this post anyway, and will check back on Friday for more nail-goodness!
