Welcome to 2017 Nail Art

Press Sample

Hello all! I took a cue from my first post of 2016, and decided I wanted to do similar nails! I reversed the color of my base because the moment I swatched KBShimmer Whiskey Business, I knew it had to be my New Year's Eve manicure. It's just the perfect gold polish.

I wanted to go simple for a few reasons:

1. I knew today would be bountiful sunshine! I love, whenever possible, to give you sun shots of gorgeous holos and shimmers in addition to shade and artificial lighting. It's so crucial when you have a complex polish to see it in as many lightings as possible. I hope you like it too! I knew I had a few that were waiting on sunshine.

2. I hate taking off complex nail art just after a day. I'm convinced one of the reasons I'm not a huge blogger is because I can't take off complex art 10 minutes after doing them and churn out one a day. It's why I never participate in the 31 day challenge. Let me wear my art for 2-3 days!

3. I always find my simple art looks better...which then I feel bad taking off! But at least I know it's easy to recreate!

Welcome to 2017 Nail Art

This look was fairly simple! I used two coats of KBShimmer Whiskey Business as my base. Then I outline 2017, with one number on each of my nails, using Paint Box Polish Axe Fight. I did one coat of the numbers. Then I went back in and did another coat of Axe Fight, one number at a time, and with a dotting tool, added little gold glitters. Topped it all with Girly Bits Glitter Glaze! Done and done!
