Peachy Nails Take Two

Hi everyone! Another late Glam Nails Challenge prompt today, this one is peaches. I had a lovely weekend with my sister visiting so didn't have time to do my nails or blog. it was a great weekend though so I'm happy to be catching up today! For this theme I decided to recreate some peach nails I did in the past with my Nails Inc Kiss My Peach duo. I'm not so good at freehand so it's good to practise and see if I've improved.

I started with a base of pale peach on all nails, and used brighter peach to create a gradient on my index finger, little finger and thumb. On my middle two nails I used the bright peach to add some peach shapes, I created sort of vague heart shapes as this helped me work towards something and stop them being to blobby! I then added some little green leaves using the same brush. Overall I do think they've come out better than my previous ones. I'd like to see what the peaches are like with black outlines but I didn't want to risk messing it up!

Just Peachy Nail Art with Nails Inc

Hi nail people! I hope you are enjoying some sunshine! Got some summery nails to show you today, using the Nails Inc Kiss My Peach duo which I bought from someone in a Facebook group, after having had my eye on it for a while. I was very taken with it arriving in a velvety peach fuzz box!! Though I must admit it makes it slightly harder to open and close.

I wanted to do some nail art that was mostly using the two colours in the box, Peach Tease and Hot Fuzz. I started with a base of Peach Tease, and on the ring, thumb and little finger nails I created a gradient adding Hot Fuzz with a sponge. For the middle two fingernails I used a large dotting tool to create the peaches, and then a nail art brush to add a couple of green leaves to each. I then drew some lines in the middle of each peach to try and give them a bit of shape. Worked better on some than others, freehand is not my strong point, but I was pretty happy with it.

One thing I must mention about these polishes is that they are scented. When I initially tried them on my Uber Mat I couldn't really smell them, but once I wore this nail art it really came though! I was really impressed with how long it lasted and it reminded my of holidays when I was a kid. The top coat muffled it a bit but as that wore away a bit at the top the smell came back again a few days later! Love it!
