Patriotic Week - Day 7

Hi there!

This is my Independence Day manicure...

My nails painted with OPI - Alpine Snow.
Patriotic 4th of July nail foil design.

I painted 2 coats of Alpine Snow. Once dry, I applied the foil glue and waited for it to become tacky. Then I pressed the foils over the glue, and... voila! I used Seche Vite as my topcoat.

I was inspired by a combination of this picture...

...and the fact that I've not tried nail foils before. They've been sitting among my nail art supplies for over a year! I think the technique is pretty simple- but more importantly, it was fun to achieve.

Welp... I'm off to go down to the waterfront to watch the neighborhood's firework display. I'd love to know how you wore your nails and how you celebrated today/tonight! Stay safe.

Until next time...
