These nails were mostly created using inspiration from across google images! I went to Superdrug the other day to pick up the new Barry M Gellys (I only managed to buy Key Lime and Mango though and was gutted) so I used these new polishes plus the Pomegranate Gelly.
They're not the best but I'm trying to improve on my tutorial skills so here's a step-by-step on how I created these nails.
1. Use a base coat (obviously).
2. Paint two layers of your base colour. I used Model's Own White.
3. I then used Barry M's Nail art pen in black to do a rough outline of where I wanted the straight lines to be. It doesn't matter how rough these lines are because they'll be covered up later.
4. I then used a medium nail art brush to fill in the lines with different colours. This was completely random and done however I fancied putting them.
5. I finished off the design with a small nail art brush and Barry M black to re-do the original black lines and add in any extra features - zig zags and dots etc.
6. After giving the nails forever to dry I applied two layers of Sally Hansen Quick Dry and cleaned up the manicure.
I love the new Barry M colours - they're fab and bright. Just hope I can get my claws on the others soon.
