Monday Blues: Butterfly Explosion

Hello my lovelies! It's the first Monday of February. I hope it's gonna be a great month for everyone! I'm excited about spring and can't wait for the warm weather. Meanwhile, I created a manicure that expresses just how much I'm looking forward to blue skies. If you follow my blog for a while, you might have noticed that I have a bit of a butterfly obsession. I created countless butterfly manicures in the last years, so why not make another one. Here it is!


First off, let me say that this manicure didn't turn out as expected. I wanted to use another polish for the stamping but the bottle cap was completely stuck. After struggling with it for a while, I gave up and chose another polish that didn't stamp that great. I still got lots of compliments for these nails so I guess the vivid base color is what counts more. My butterfly obsession doesn't stop at nails, I have a couple of dresses and lots of jewellery that is butterfly themed. I used two of my earrings as props for these pictures.


Both polishes I used for this manicure are from Kiko. The base color is 525 Metallic Pastel Blue and the stamping color is 294 Indigo. The butterfly image is from plate BP-07 from the Born Pretty Store.


This manicure was extremely easy to create and made a great impression on everyone. This bright blue is the kind of shade that doesn't go unnoticed. Don't forget that you can use code MFL91 to get 10% off your Born Pretty order. And check out the other February Monday Blues in the links below!


Have a great week!

    They look awesome! I really should use my acrylic paints more often especially now that I know that doing gradients with them can get such great results like this. The peacock stamping looks fantastic too.

    Even though it wasn't your original plan, it still turned out really beautifully!

    Super frumoase! Chiar ma pui pe ganduri cu acrilicele. Desi, mai nou nu am probleme de clean up pt ca am inceput sa folosesc miss sporty peel off si e perfect! Minunata combinatia de culori :)
