I love all kinds of nail art with butterflies, and I’ve posted a lot of them in the blog. Today I have yet another butterfly design, i hope you will like it :)
The base color is one of my favorite light pinks OPI Italian Love Affair NL I27. The color was released waaaay back in 2001 with OPI Italian collection. Currently the polish is a part of the OPI Classic collection.
The rough gradient on the tips is done with OPI Mother Road Rose NL S65, it’s a dark red shimmer that can be a one coater if you apply it thick enough. In the pics the polish is applied in 1 coat on the accent nail.
The butterfly and the text are water decals from different sets.
I like it that the nail look combines two seasons: the light pink Italian love Affair is a summer-y shade, and Mother Road Rose is perfect for Fall, so the dark gradient made the manicure season appropriate :)
Thank you for looking! See youuu <3
Nice combination of colours, I love the final effect! :-)
Thank you dear :)
I love this colour combination for your gradient!! I’ve been looking at OPI Italian Love Affair for a long time… maybe i should get it :)
Gorgeous Mani.
Thank you Karen! The polish is beautiful, but quite sheer. It requires at least 3 coats to become opaque.
Butterflies symbolize freedom, elegance and beauty, exactly like your wonderful nail art!
:)) thank you Andrea!
Perfect combination of colors and decals <3
