31 day challenge - Day 16 - Tribal print

Today sees the return of the tribal print (otherwise known as aztec) nails! I do love doing this as it really gives you a chance to just doodle on your nails - though you've still got to have some sense of discipline to it. This probably isn't my best look but it's still a cool design to try out!

Return of the Aztec


After getting the Barry M nail art pens a while back, I've wanted to retry the "aztec" look that I attempted before. I thought that it would be much easier to handle than a brush, plus it would allow me to do a lot more detail and boy was I right! I love how these turned out! It took me a while but ho-hum, it was worth it. This time I did a base coat of white (CG - White on White) with black detailing for all but the accent nail of which I did black (OPI - Razzle Dazzle) with white detailing.

Colours used:

Basecoat: Essie - Rock Solid
Base colours: China Glaze - White on White and Nicole by OPI - Razzle Dazzle
Designs: Barry M Nail Art Pens - White and Black
Topcoat: Seche Vite
