Wave nail art

Hello my little nail polish addicts :D

I'm in a very good mood today, don't know why but don't you just love that happening :)

Anyways, polish.... I have wave nail art for you today. This has been painted over my last mani, my Moonlit Ocean franken. The 'ocean' bit gave me the idea for this art. (Ha! you don't say Ellie!)

The finished look

I get bored easily and a day after putting on some polish, I am already thinking to myself  'What can I add to this mani?' Sometimes, when I add things - glitter, nail art, bits I find lying around - it works, sometimes it doesn't. This time I think it did.

My tools for the Wave look

I don't yet own any nail art brushes but as I'm a painter I have a million brushes lying around so I use one of these. It does the job :) I noticed I didn't get a picture of the teal glitter used on the tips... :/ But a group shot including it can be found in my stash link for the minute, till I get a single shot to post here.

Ok, first I very untidily painted a wave shape on my nails with Pink Tease in white.

Then I roughly filled in half the wave with same.

Then I added some more of the Moonlit Ocean and white with the paint brush to blend them together a bit. Make sure you stipple the edges of the wave to give it a frothy, splashy... you-know-what-I-mean, kind of look. :D

This is what you should end up with.

 Give it a top coat to get rid of the stipply brush marks.

I then decided to add some glitter to them to give it that 'moonlit' sparkle. Then added another top coat. My nails should be an inch thick with all these coats!!

glint!
