Rays of light

I am completely beat, I'm working way more hours than I'm used to and it's wearing me down . I'm already behind as far as responding to comments on previous posts (sorry about that) and I may be a bit more off than usual as far as posting simple because I may not have the time or energy for polish changes.  

Before removing my Essie Sexy Divide I thought I'd play a bit.  I ended up liking the look a lot and wearing it for a day or so but forgot to post pictures.    

The lighter purple is a metallic acrylic paint that I recently purchased.  The acrylic metallic colors are really quite nice and work very well for nail art.

Once I'd used the light purple metallic for the wide rays I took a liner brush with some metallic white and did some fine brush flicks on either side of the rays.

From there I took NYX Purple Diamond which is comprised of silver fine and hex glitters in a purple base, and using a fine brush, painted it over the remaining dark purple, making sure to place hexes towards the tips of the nails.

This is a more modern look than I usually do, mostly because they have a tendency to fail for me, but I think this one turned out quite well and changed the whole look of the previous mani into something completely different.

 

Back to the grind I go, hopefully you all are having wonderful days.  Until next time, take care.
