Ahh I was so excited by today's prompt but then my original plan failed and I was a bit disappointed, but then I remembered seeing a few tutorials a while back on watercolour nails so I decided to do that today and oh my god I'm so happy I failed at first because these nails have shot straight up to my favourite design. Just like with the black and white nails, I had never done this design before and I am incredibly happy with them, I also can't understand why I've never done it before.
And just like the black and white nails I did something different on my thumb, the design on my thumb was part of the original design but I wanted to try it out anyway just to see if it would have worked out and I'm also quite pleased with it, it would probably look even better with a certain colour scheme instead of rainbow.
I used quite a few colours for this but I'll list them towards the end.
I also decided to take a photo outside because it seemed brighter but I'm not too sure if it was haha. And I've watermarked my photos with my instagram name. I'm not sure how I feel about the watermark but it's just a precaution and if I didn't start using it now I would eventually anyway.
I used the acetone method for this, I'm not sure if there are other ways to do this, although I have seen plastic wrap being used to press it down but acetone seemed like the easiest way and it was!

I'm so happy and proud of these nails and once the challenge is over I will definitely be trying this design out with different colours.
Hope everyone's having a good Monday!
I loved the design on your thumb :') perfect (:
