#31DC2 Days 29, 30, & 31

Hey there. You know that sweet relief when you finally finish something? I finally finished drivers ed today and I am so happy to get back into blogging again! I really want to finish up this 31 Day Challenge 2.0. So today I have three different nail designs for you all. I should have a challenge wrap up later today or sometime over the weekend.

Day 29 Inspired By A Polish

I say inspired by a polish extremely loosely. More like a color combo. But I had a different design already done for this day, but I hated it and decided not to put it up. I have been kind of obsessed with the gray/yellow/teal/black combo lately. I free handed this nail art with a nail art brush. I used Nicole By OPI Hit the Lights, some unnamed LA colors teal colors, NYC Black Lace Creme, Revlon Bare Bones, and NYC French White Tip.



Day 30 Tape or Nail Vinyls

I have always wanted to do this rainbow block kind of design. So here we are. I used a ton of polishes for this. If you have any questions about them, ask me in the comments.



Day 31 Recreate Your Favorite Challenge

My favorite challenge was day 12 when I did my intricate design. This one didn't turn out as good but I love how retro it is. I free handed this design,

Outline Nail Art with Studs

Hey guys! It's been a long time, I know. I have been doing drivers ed for half a month now and finals are coming up. I don't really know if it will get any better, but I hope so! I finish drivers ed tomorrow so I should be less busy soon.

Today I want to show you some outline nail art! I normally don't do outline designs but I really enjoy this one. I did do a gradient under the outline but it is kind of hard to tell with the outline there. The outline polish is Zoya Dhara (so beautiful!!). The studs are from The New Black. For the gradient I used China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy and Metro Pollen-tin.

#31DC2 Day 28 Studs

Hey guys! Today I have day 28 of the 31 Day Challenge 2.0 for you. Today's prompt is studs. I really don't have a lot of options when it comes to studs, but I do have some pretty ones from The New Black. I used Revlon Bare Bones as a base for all of my nail art. For the stud nails I used the gold square studs from The New Black over some flaky glitter that I bought from the dollar store. The roses are painted in Sinful Colors Beau Khaki, NYC Sunset Park, and NYC Tropicoral.
