NOTD- Skittle IKAT Mani


Hello lovers! Today I am very excited to show you a mani I think I'll be sporting more often.
Neon Skittle IKATs!

It looks complicated but thanks to the power of the interwebs, there are plenty of amazing tutorials available.
The one I saw was tweeted by Rie at Nails and Noms--> here
Somehow it's a lot simpler than I had imagined! YAY!!

So I took a quick look at it, and gave it my own spin. 
To achieve the above look, I used the following:


Base:
OPI- Skulls & Glossbones 

Skittle accents:
Color Club- Feelin Groovy, Wild Child, Electro Candy
China Glaze- Flying Dragon (!!)
NYC- Times Square

and black acrylic paint for the black outline.


I am really in love with this....
Like the Paisley print, there are so many variations of the print you can go with....so again!
The possibilities are endless 


I didn't have to do much clean up with this mani....which is always a plus!
I'll definitely be RAWKING this again sometime!

Have a wonderful day, my beautifuls!

    More neon! I love! So much summer on one hand.


    And I just had a thought. Do you paint your nails seasonally, Winnie? Because fall is coming up, and I love fall shades!

    I paint my nails with whatever that feels right at the moment, so yea, i'd say i'm seasonally influenced! I LURVE fall shades too!!!!! and yay for scarves!!


    With that being said, we haven't had much of a summer yet so i refuse to think about fall approaching quickly LOL :P
