Lily Nails

I've been practicing my lilies!

I have three different lily manis to share with you today!

The first is on a base of China Glaze Fairy Dust. The outer most pink is Julep Madison and the inner petal color is Lauren. I dotted the petals with Niecy and again with a mix of red and black paint; I used Daisy for the center and dotted it with Nikki. The leaves are done in Leah, with veins in Nikki. This was a primarily Julep mani!





The second design is on a base of Julep Sasha. The petals are outlined with China Glaze Kinetic Candy. The inner next petal color is Julep Robin, and the inner most petal color is Julep Claire. The petals are dotted with China Glaze Crimson and the center is a swirl of China Glaze Lemon Fizz and Golden Opportunity. For the leaves, I used ChG Gaga for Green, and Def Defying for the leaves' veins. I eventually ended up adding some loose glitter bits from Born Pretty Store to the flower centers.






Lastly, I have yellow lilies! The base color for this mani is Revlon Calla Lily. The outline color is L.A. Colors Daisy with an inner petal color of China Glaze Sunshine Pop. The very center of the petals have small lines of two nameless L.A. Colors polishes, and the center is a dot of Julep Oscar. I dotted the petals with Revlon Plum Night, and the leaves are Pure ICE Free Spirit, veined with Blackheart Beauty Pastel Green.







These were so much fun to do! I'm glad I finally got around to trying them! I love how they all turned out!
