Colorblock nails

Hello there,

I'm still sort of stuck in a glitter sandwich manicure phase, but I thought I'd take a break and do colorblock nails.

Here's what I came up with:


 



The blue is Bleu Fabuleux by Bourgeois and the orange is Orange it's obvious by Essie.

On the second day of this manicure, I felt like some change and replaced my orange index by a green one using OPI's Did it on'em.



Do you like to mix and match your polish or is sticking to one color at a time more your thing?

Thanks for reading :)

    1. Thank you! I agree, it's a good way to wear more than one polish at a time without layering. And changing the color on my accent nail mid way was fun.

    1. Thanks! It is indeed super simple. I didn't want to do anything fancy with such bright colors. I had a hard time picking out the colors for the accent nails because I wanted something as bright as the blue and that would give a good contrast. Glad you liked it!

  3. I don't think I can continue just plain old polish any longer. I tried to do just one color but added a glitter accent to a couple nails because it just seemed more fun. I'm definitely into the Mixing and matching. We have ten fingers, so what's the point of making them all look the same :)
