Celebrating World Sea Turtle Day with Nail Art


Happy Monday, dear readers! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and your week is off to a wonderful start! Saturday was Wold Sea Turtle Day, and since sea turtles are my favorite animal, you know I had to create a fun nail art look for the occasion!


To create this look, I started off by painting my nails with a white base. For this design, I used Rica Polish in Whiteout. On my ring, middle, and thumb nails (although my poor thumbs always end up left out in photos), I dotted Literary Lacquers cremes inSalmon Enchanted Evening, If Thou Hast Eyes To See, Desdemona's Handkerchief, and Cyan-Tifically Proven. Using a stamper, I then smooshed the dots to create the mottled colourful background. Once dry, I used Ever After Polish in Black Magic with MoYou London stamping plate in Explorer Collection #16 to place the turtles on my nails.


Even though Saturday was World Sea Turtle Day, I wanted my sea turtles to have some other ocean life friends on my nails. I kept it simple by applying starfish and fish + coral + seahorse patterned water decals from Born Pretty Store to my other nails. I then sealed all my nails in with KBShimmer's Clearly On Top top coat.


I hope you've enjoyed my nail art from the weekend! I have lots of ideas floating in my mind, and with the blog mostly settled with the new name and layout, I can start focusing my attention on other things, including nail art!


Until next time, dear readers, have a wonderful day!
XO!
