*Sings* Yes, I do, I believe, that one day I will be, where I was, right there, right next to you! And it’s hard, the days just seems so dark, the moon, the stars are nothing without you! *sing sobs* Thank you! Thank you! (And thank you Sam Smith for the heart string pulling lyrics) I’ll be here all week!...I just missed you guys mkaay?? And my lil space! *hugs blog* hello babeh...anyhoo, to the mucho fun stuff. The #PPSAnailchallenge! If you haven’t heard about it yet, it’s a challenge that the admin ladies (Ooh! Oooh! I’m one!) of the Polished Pretties South Africa group on Facebook put together for the month on June to get our creativity flowing. It is a challenge that is open to absolutely ANYONE, even the smexy international beings. All you have to do is make a mani according the theme and tag it using #PPSAnailchallenge. Le easy!
Unicorn
When I saw this prompt I was over the moon because cmooon, frakking Unicorns! What is not to love?? Uuuumm...well when it came to the actual mani my brain pulled the mother of all blanks. I had zero and I mean ZERO ideas. And then it hit me like the beautiful flick of a majestic Unicorn tail. With all this positive body imagery going on nowadays and people learning to love themselves and embrace their imperfections, why not celebrate the more fuller, fun loving, donut eating Unicorns?? Oh they exist! Where do you think cupcake sprinkles come from?
I started out by laying down 2 coats of Sinful Colors Snow Me White as the base for my mani. When this was dry I cut a makeup triangle into smaller blocks and sponged on randomly over my nails using Essence Free Hugs, Essence Love Is In Air, Color Club Twiggie, Sinful Colors Sail La Vie, OPI Do You Lilac It, and China Glaze For Audrey. To add a bit of sparkle I added a coat of China Glaze Fairy Dust over the sponged base. To make my donuts I used a thin nail art brush, Essence Wanna Say Hello, Essence Free Hugs Color Club Twiggie, OPI Do You Lilac It and Sinful Colors Snow Me White. For the hearts I used my thin art brush and Sinful Colors Folly. Lastly I made my fuller figured unicorn using OPI Fly, Tip Top Nail Chic Melting Marshmallow, Sinful Colors Folly and WOW Nail Polish #393.
I kinda like how this came out! It’s not 100% like I imagined in my head but it’s still cute and happy-feeling, which is what I was going for. To me that is mission accomplished right?!
Lots of mad love...
