Red nails are my favorite. It is a timeless classic but I find it tricky to use red nail polish in nail art. It’s a strong colour that looks great by itself but when combined with other colours often dominates them or even worse, looks tacky with the wrong shades. So that was my challenge for today, to create red nail art of more than one colour that looks classy.

This looks great!! Definitely not tacky. I’m not a huge fan of red polish because I find it too much to wear it on its own but this look I will try! :)
