I started with cat-eye gel polish I purchased on AliExpress.
I applied two coats over the base coat, and I applied magnet on each layer. This looked really dreamy in person. To me, it looked like a gold galaxy far, far away. I will have to use it again soon. I topped it with no wipe gel top coat.
This may be perfect winter color if you divide your colors as summer and winter ones. I do not do such a thing- loving unseasonal color now and then to make a things interesting.
Lately, I am all about dark, deep colors, and have several manicures prepared in those colors, and I will try to mix them up with brighter toned ones.
I do have plenty of butterfly images, but for some unexplained reason, I was compelled to do freehand version. Whole summer I was thinking of doing a manicure with a bright blue butterflies, and summer came and is almost ended, and I never got around doing it. For that reason, I did not want something that will not show them in the best light.
I do not fancy myself as a great painter, but I really like how those looked, actually I loved them even painted with my left hand - I painted both of my hands like this, and I have to admit, stamping is so much easier to do evenly on both hands. I will include photo or two of both hands below, and I want to thank my son for helping me with that. For the life of me I could not figure out how to do timer on the new camera, and I was too stubborn to read instructions... hahaha - I sound like a man in this last statement.
All is done with black, white and blue acrylic paint. I hope you will enjoy.
Until tomorrow, I bid you a wonderful day.
Cheers!
