Abstract Sparrow Nail Art

Hey Y'all sorry I haven't written in so long. I've been home in LA for spring break and have been so busy! It's been a blast. I've been eating at all my favorite restaurant's, pool lounging, hanging with my friends, going out to my favorite bars. Man I do not want to go back to the East Coast. Anywho today I wanted to show you guys my abstract sparrow nail art. For the base coat I used "Fair Dinkum Pinkum" by OPI and for the designs I used the gold glitter, silver glitter, and black nail polish by Milani's Nail Art collection. Let me know your thoughts!

Nail Polish Strips

The latest trend in nail art is nail polish strips. The brands I have tried so far are Sally Hanson's and Maybelline's Color Show. My friend just gave me nail strips by SEPHORA by OPI that I still want to try, but it's for my toes and I want to save them for when I can start wearing open toed shoes! Anyway, the Maybelline nail strips designs were so much cooler than any other nail strips I've seen out there! Unfortunately, they did not go on easily and started peeling within 48 hours. I'm not as big of a fan of the Sally Hanson designs (although I also just bought a lace design to try out in the future). The skull print I used were a special Halloween line. Let me know what you guys think of Nail Strips which brands are better quality and which have cuter designs!

Drippity Drip Drip Nail Art

I got totally sick of my last nail art so I decided to paint some new ones today! Also I'm going into the NYC tomorrow so I wanted to have some nails that were a little more fun and edgy. I went with a monochromatic drip effect with a splash of red on the ring finger. I used "Alpine Snow" by OPI for the base, "Black Tie" by Confetti for the black drips and finally "Kennebunk-Port" by OPI for the red drips. Let me know what you guys think!

Abstract Nail Art

Today, I wanted to talk about abstract nail art. I am a studio arts major so there is definitely a place in my heart for awesome geometric colorful shapes. I also find abstract nail art more often than not to be easier to create because of the simple shapes. Also, using nail art pens or Milani's nail art polishes  makes is easy to create thin and well defined lines on your nails making your design look perfectly geometrical. Here are a couple abstract nail designs I have done in the past.
