/ Jakarta, Jakarta, Indonesia.
The sun is shining, the temperature is perfect to go barelegged again, finally it is my favorite season of the year, it is summertime!
Preparing my summer holiday trip this year has been really fun, exciting, and hectic at the same time.. It is now less than a week before I fly out the country and even though most of my to do list has been checked, I’m still looking through the list over and over again, especially my clothes list, I can’t pack too much because for sure I’m going to shop there 😛
So, I was checking my outfit mix and match details and my own look from head to toe, everything looked ok, I permed and re-dyed my hair, abs work out on progress, so far so good until I saw my nails.. I realized I didn’t pay much attention on my nails.. I haven’t removed my toe nail polish which looked so ugly and I haven’t applied any nail polish on my hand nails as well.. It might not look important but trust me, small detail like that can create big difference to your whole look.. So, without any hesitation, I started to create my summer nail look..
I already cleaned my nails and applied the cuticle guard polish before, then I applied this metallic nail polish, which very easy to apply, usually with metallic nail polish they don’t spread evenly when you apply it on your nails (at least in my experience, correct me if I’m wrong)
I applied it to my nails except my ring finger because I wanted to do something different with it later.. As you can see the color is soooo pretty.. Not too bright and vivid but still have that subtle summer feeling..
It didn’t take too long for the metallic nail polish to dry up, so after a couple seconds I can continue working my ring finger.. I used the nail glue on my ring finger, then covered it with sandy mineral glitter to create little bit of summer vibe..
There are several ways to apply glitter powder on your nails, you can use your hands like I did, or you can use brush and dab it to your nails..
Last but not least, I used the flower nail stamp pattern and stamped it to all of my metallic nails (click here to read the full tutorial).. After they dried up, applied top coat polish and voila! I’m ready for my summer trip!
