POOL PARTY ~

When I came across a pool inspired nail art by Amber_NailArt on IG, I knew I had to do it as my vacation manicure.

This nail art was quite a journey. I knew the pool background would be the challenge of the design. At first, I tried to do it with a details brush but I turned out really shitty. So I tried the ocean nails technique that I saw on Abe The Nail Babe TikTok. Basically, you have to use a jelly stamper, put some oil on it and your nail polish on top. The oil will make your polish separate, it will create some holes in your polish. The background turned out ok I think, not as realistic that I wanted to be but you kinda get the idea of what I tried to do lol. On top of the water, I added some summer essentiels.

This manicure really didn't last a long time on my nails, I think the oil is a part of the reason and obviously I went to the beach so it just worsen everything lol. And on top of that, I had multiple broken nails. It's really the worst when your nails are ruined on vacation lol.
