Mani Monday: Silver Flames With Sea Siren Jealousea

This improvised manicure is ripe for the Oscars red carpet. I’ve used a sea green and silver combo but this design will work in almost any colour and texture you can imagine. Classic black and gold or pastel pink and mint are just 2 examples.

The main feature of this nail art is a bright greenish-blue creme with a silver micro-shimmer from Sea Siren called Jealousea. After deciding to add silver accents I realised the design needed a flowing shape rather than something geometric. So I chose a pattern resembling flames as I still wanted it to be edgy. The thick silver micro glitter, Kester Black Sugar Daddy, was perfect for that.

To get the look: paint all nails with opaque sea green polish. Then with a striping nail art brush, paint silver flames. Make sure you outline the nail bed to cover any green areas to get that gradient like flame-effect. Once all nails have their flames, seal your design with 2-3 coats of quick dry glossy top coat and you’re done!

Used: Sea Siren Jealousy, Kester Black Sugar Daddy and Sally Hansen Diamond Flash top coat.
Wearing:  Flower Crown Ring.
