Rejected from the beach

Hey everyone! Today's nail design was one of my original designs for the beauty and the beach competition, but I felt that it didn't quite make the cut. Nevertheless, I wanted to share it on my blog because it's still a design that I've done and this blog is a document of my designs. I have a couple more still to show you too which should be up in the next couple of weeks.


I'm not sure of the exact colours I used, but I know that the base is OPI - Gargantuan Green Grape, probably with Barry M - Yellow sponged on top, and then Barry M - Blueberry for the sea. But I do know that the black is the black Barry M nail art pen, and the silver is Clinique - Strappy Sandals


What do you think? Let me know in the comments!

  3. So beautiful! It reminds me a song (Holiday - Scorpions):

    "Longing for the sun you will come
    To the island without name
    Longing for the sun be welcome
    On the island many miles away from home"

    ... I think I need some Holiday, isn't it?
    Have a nice day!

  4. I really like the colour combo in this design (how you get a gradient to look so nice, I don't know, it seems like a skill that escapes me LOL) but it would have made a lovely entry IMO.

    Alice, I swear, you're trying to kill me here! Didn't quite make the cut!? Honey, this is beyond wow! I love everything about it! The soft hint of foam on the sea, the black rocks, the whole end of day feeling of the gradiented sky and the palm trees are great and original! Tsk, tsk! 'didn't quite make the..' honey, you should be ashamed! :P heheh

  9. this inspired me to do a simular beach scene but with more sunset colors. i used insta dry snappy sorbet for the base and sponged on a pink color. then i drew palm trees on my ring and thumb fingers with black
