This week, with the Olympics opening ceremony tomorrow, my theme is... WINTER OLYMPICS.
This is two coats of Barry M Lady, which is a lovely white textured glitter. I love this polish for a snow effect; the texture works really well I think. As all the pre-Olympics talk has been about Russia's attitude to gay rights (or lack of them), I went with the rainbow design, which I did with striping tape. I did a quick Olympics rings design on the thumb with a Barry M nail art pen. I don't like my rings, as they didn't link properly; I think I made them too small.
I have decided that I don't like striping tape left on the nails - it's almost impossible to get it to lie totally flat at the sides, and I know I'll end up picking this off.
I don't really watch much of the winter olympics, I have to say. I like figure skating, especially the men's competition (but don't like ice dancing) and I used to enjoy skiing, although I haven't watched it in years. I quite enjoy watching the ski cross and the acrobatic skiing too.
As for the nails, I like the white, I like the look of the rainbow (although not the feel) and I don't like the thumb.
Fab design especially the inclusion of the rainbow design. I am not sure if I'll watch them just because of how corrupt it's possibly been so far...
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, it's all been a bit offputting this year, hasn't it?
