In my quest to do the full week of the #CBBOctNails challenge, here is day 4 – Abstract & Geo Nail Art.
Today’s prompt is probably simpler for most of us. You can pretty much go with whatever and we all have tools and stamps for abstract or geometric designed nails. I went with a base of Arabian by Picture Polish because I was already wearing it and I am lazy like that.
Then I used these Quo by Orly water transfer nail art decals in Kaleidoscope. Quo released four designs in these nail art transfers last year along with a white polish and two would work for an abstract look, these and Mischief. The others are pretty petals in pink and love notes (handwriting) in black.
These are by far my fave nail decals and I am really sorry to see that they do not seem to make them anymore as I only ever find old ones on clearance at Shoppers Drug Mart. Unlike many nail decals, these are full nail sheets and apply really well with no bubbles. The paper backing helps as you are pushing on it as you wet the decal rather than try to position a decal on the nail manually. If you are interested, I reviewed Quo nail art transfers here.
I added two coats of Essence The Gel top coat to really help seal in the decals, making sure to cap the top of the nail.
These look so striking in black and white. I had the Quo transfers in Mischief and loved the pattern so much!
Mischief are the only ones I have never used (or found) they went quickly
Arabian is gorgeous! And those decals are perfect for this theme, love it!
It really is a perfect red
