40 Great Nail Art Ideas - 3 shades of red/orange and Circles


Time for another instalment of 40 Great Nail Art Ideas. I wasn't keen on this mani I came up with. The colour theme was 3 shades of red/orange and I had circles for my pattern. I think my idea was good but the colours didn't really go together. 


For my base I used the amazing Ben Affleck is Shelia's Homeboy which was from Colors by Llarowe's Krispy Kreme collection. This a bright cheery red intense linear holo with a red and slight blue flame. I am not a red fan but I love this! It was opaque in one coat, but I added a second one to be sure.


You can even see the blue flame until soft light....


But in direct light..wow! Look at that blue. It's just gorgeous.




So to get a circle effect, using a dotting tool, I did a dot of No Fear from Itsy Nails and let it dry. Then I added a smaller dot over that using Ben Affleck is Sheila's Homeboy. This kind of makes the orange part look like a circle. 


I did the same using Fashionably Late from Jessica but this one didn't show up as well on the base coat.

What do you think of this mani? Ben Affleck is Sheila's Homeboy is amazing right?!

Check out all the other manis below. Bye for now x
