HOLI INSPIRED NAIL ART WITH DOTS

                     Happy Holi friends!!! Here is yet another colorful Holi inspired nail art which is simple yet very pretty. You just need your colors and your dotting tools to recreate this design. Here I have lots of dots all over my nails in different sizes and vibrant colors. I request you not to aim for perfect dots.



So here is the pictorial of the nail art I created for today. Enjoy.....























Step 1- For the base coat today I have applied a coat of Oriflame Very Me Base & Top Coat.


Step 2- After that I painted my nails with Colorbar Nail Lacquer Exclusive 37, two coats were enough.























Step 3- I painted pink uneven dots on all the nails with the help of a toothpick.






















Step 4- I painted yellow uneven dots on all the nails with the help of a toothpick.
























Step 5- I added green uneven dots on all the nails with the help of a toothpick.
























Step 6- I added blue uneven dots on all the nails with the help of a toothpick.
























Step 7- I painted red and orange uneven dots on all the nails with the help of a toothpick again

























Step 8- I added Oriflame Very Me Base & Top Coat to seal my piece of art and protect the design. Done!!!!


Thanks for bearing with me and have a Colorful Evening ahead :)

HOLI INSPIRED NAIL ART

                             Happy Holi to my dearest readers, lovely followers and sweet friends. Holi, the festival of colors is also a spring festival. Holi marks the end of winter and arrival of spring, Holi signifies the victory of good over evil. Here is a very colorful nail art with splashes of vibrant color, my aim was to make my nails look stained with different colors but I didn't think this would be the outcome. I am not sure whether I like this design or not :P It was not possible to take pics of all the steps but I think the pics/steps given below are enough for my dear girlies to understand what's going on. Also the green looks muted and dull in the pics below, it actually is a bright green :/

Step 3- I painted pink and orange uneven spot on all the nails with the help of a very fine tipped small brush.


























Step 4- Gradually I kept adding the colors one by one; green, red & yellow and kept some space for blue.


























Step 5- Finally I added the blue in the gaps and cleaned up the extra polish.



























Step 6- I added Oriflame Very Me Base & Top Coat to seal my piece of art and protect the design. Done!!!!


Thanks for bearing with me and have a Good Night ahead :)

HOLI- YOUR HAIR & SKIN NEEDS PROTECTION

            


















                   Holi is the festival of color and joy. It is celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day of the lunar month Phalguna. People throw colors at each other and enjoy this spring festival.


                    But mostly nowadays these colors are synthetic or harmful chemicals are added to them to add vibrancy. This may cause skin irritation, rashes, allergy etc. So I have come up with a few points to remember before exposing yourself to these colors.


Skin Protection:-


1. Use a sunscreen lotion with high Sun Protective Factor. Apply all over face, neck, arms and all other exposed parts.


2. Next apply a few drops of baby oil or almond oil over your entire face, neck, arms and other exposed parts.



3. On your lips use a lip balm with SPF and top it with a neutral color lippie.



4. Apply kajal on your eyes to enhance and shape them. But the kajal should be waterproof and smudge free.



5. Line your eyes with a waterproof eyeliner and use waterproof mascara as well.



6. Also protect your brows by coating them with a transparent/waterproof mascara after grooming them.




Hair Protection:-



7. Apply henna a day or 2 before Holi to protect hair from color.



8. Apply coconut/almond oil on hair just to coat hair so there is not much damage.



9. Tie up your hair and don't even think of keeping it open.




Nail Protection:-



10. Apply a neutral color on your tips and toes. If you have long nails then coat the underside of the nails with a transparent nail polish.



                   Afterwards, when you return home, use a moisturising shower gel to clean your skin, a good shampoo will clean your hair. Also use a nail polish remover to take off nail polish from your nails and also from the underside of your nails. Clean properly in between your fingers, toes and behind the ears. Be careful not to rub too much while cleaning.


WISH YOU ALL A VERY COLORFUL AND HAPPY HOLI
