Manicure Monday - Mini Ice Cream Cone Nail Art

Happy Mani Monday everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend - it's been busy weekend away at the cabin, and I've really enjoyed my time away; but, I am looking forward to a weekend at home soon! 

The OPI primer was sent as a PR sample, everything else I purchased

For the month of August, the #CBBxManiMonday group is carrying on with our Summer Lingo theme and this week I chose Cold Desserts and Treats for my theme! 

We have a few ice cream monsters in our house, so ice cream cones are our go-to Summer treats! I personally like ice cream - give me a chocolately, peanut buttery flavour and I'm sold! Also, I personally prefer soft serve because I'm the slowest ice cream eater; but, I will usually eat whatever is my option! 

The products that I used for this week's manicure are:

• Sally Hansen x Jelly Belly Insta-Dri Nail Color in Birthday Cake 
• Square Hue polish in King Street
• Morgan Taylor polish in All My Heart Desires
• Smackers Nail Polish in Wickedly Stylish
• OPI Infinite Shine primer
• Moyra Top Coat for Nail Stamping

I also used a stamping tool and toothpick for this nail art! 

For my nails, I started with a primer and 2 coats of Birthday Cake as the base polish - I thought the confetti style polish would add to the ice cream look and I think it worked. Then, using the brown polish and a toothpick, I created triangles for the cones. Then with the dotting tool, I dotted on white, pink and a light brown (created by mixing the brown and white) to create a neapolitan ice cream look! I finished with a nail art top coat! 

I think these turned out really cute and will be fun eating Summer treats with these on my nails! And as always, make sure you check out Cosmetic Proof and Prairie Beauty Love to see their Summer nails!
