Watermelon Nails-Three Designs

Three Manis Featuring Watermelon

Hi everyone, welcome to Thursday!  I'd like to start off with some good news.  I reached 125 followers so now it's time for my first giveaway featuring four Hard Candy polishes.  I will hopefully get that set up tonight and up tomorrow.

Continuing with fruit week, today is watermelon day.  Last night I created three different looks with different polishes featuring a theme of watermelon.  I went with a regular watermelon look, a watermelon ruffian, and a watermelon French manicure.  

Full Watermelon Nails

First up is my regular watermelon look.  I started with three coats of Zoya Micky and then used OPI Gargantuan Green Grape layered on top.  For the rind I used OPI Jade is the New Black and a striping brush with Zoya Josie.  For the black seeds I used a dotting tool and Essie Licorice.

Watermelon Ruffian

Next up is my watermelon ruffian.  I started with two coats of Essie Mojito Madness and then layered on China Glaze Highlight of My Summer and Zoya Yana.  For the two kinds of seeds I used Essie Licorice and OPI My Vampire is Buff.

Watermelon French

Last up is my watermelon French mani.  For this look I started with one coat of a sheer tan color, OPI Glints of Glinda, and then layered on one coat of China Glaze Fairy Dust.  For the tips I started with Zoya Josie and then used Essie Absolutely Shore and Dior Riviera.  For the seeds I used Essie Licorice and a dotting tool.

And just for fun, this is what was going on outside while I was taking my outdoor photos.  Here is Immie, on a leash, roaming around in the driveway :)  I hope you enjoyed watermelon day, it was a lot of fun for me!
