Teenage Dream Nail Art

Okay, so this post is a bit of an afterthought since i found out i won't be able to do a real nail art post until Wednesday ):

As you all probably know, OPI's Facebook page had a Katy Perry Nail Design Contest these past few weeks, and they posted the winners last night. So now that the contest is over, i thought i'd show you the design i submitted!


My caption on the page was:
"This is my entry for the Katy Perry Nail Inspiration Contest. I chose to do my take on the "Bling" Nail Design, and i was inspired by Teenage Dream from the Katy Perry Collection. I really wanted to not just copy the design that was on her nails, but to put my own spin on it and keep it just as sparkly and blinged-out as the original. Each of the tiny beads were applied by hand individually with tweezers one at a time. I hope you like my entry! Thanks!"

I'll be back home from vacation on wednesday afternoon/evening, and i'll be sure to put up a real nail art post! This nail art week isn't going as smoothly as i had planned, but i am determined to have five full nail art posts up this week! (:

  2. Thank you so much! And for sure- i couldn't stop staring at my nail it was so sparkly! i wanted to do all of them but didn't have the time. And nope, i didn't win, but it was fun to think creatively about my take on another's design! (:
