Well this manicure is the opposite of that. I know this isn't macro, but it is a close up. While it looks kind of cool I don't think it looks it's best. This manicure in my opinion is a perfect "To be seen from a distance-acure". It's one of those manicures that catches peoples eye, but not in an obnoxious way.
To get this look I first got some inspiration from on of my favourite mediums to get inspiration from, Fashion. The piece I based this on was from Felder Felder's Autumn Winter 2014 collection. To get the effect of the dress I used the dry brush technique using a fan brush. A technique where you wipe most of the paint off your brush before using it on you nails, giving it a distressed look. I used a combo of polish and acrylic paints over a white polish.
Have you tried this technique before?
Also could someone please buy me the dress? Please and thank you :P
wow, seriously amazing! :-)
ReplyDeleteI see what you mean - it does make sense - even if I love a combo of photos including macro's ;)
ReplyDeleteI like this mani very much - it's a perfect match with the dress!
I love it. It's a great interpretation of the dress and I really think you did a good job :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks very well. Cute and grungy altogether. Macro shots are cruel sometimes, sometimes manis look better from a further distance, I agree. Well done :)
ReplyDeletei love this effect!!
