NAILS | Blue and Purple #ManiMonday

I love having Mondays off. It doesn't happen often, but the fear of Mondays is real and it's nice having the rest of the world deal with Monday so that I can swoop into Tuesday when most things have calmed down. I was at the Leo Awards last night, which is a gala honoring film in BC, so I didn't quite have time to have today's manicure prepared until now, but it was a super fun night with music and good food!

My favourite nail polish shades are blue and purple and though I try to mix up my manicures with bursts of other colours, I secretly always want to come back to these shades. Diving into the CND Creative Play Playland Collection, I saw a blue I really wanted to feature AND I also wanted to use the Christian Louboutin Loubichrome III that I picked up while shopping with Ommorphia in Montreal a few months ago!

This is a manicure I saw some time ago on SoNailicious' Instagram and thought it was a simple enough design to do with pretty much any nail polish shades so I will probably be rehashing this design again! I started off with two coats of Loubichrome III and then painted a curve on the corner using CND Creative Play Skymazing* and Aquaslide*. I waited a couple of minutes for things to dry so that the two blues wouldn't smear before I added a quick dry top coat.

I hope everyone is having a happy Monday with not too much craziness!
