White Pearl & Gold Geometric Triangle Nails

I’ve been wanting to do a pearl & gold combination and this design just kind of happened when I sat down at my nail table the other day.  I thought I might try glitter moons, but I wanted something a little more edgy and geometric and ended up with this.  I did this design freehand without any tape.  I started with my base coat and then applied Pink Gellac Magic Pearl very carefully in angled strokes, leaving a bare triangle space.  I applied two coats of Magic Pearl, curing after each coat and then filled in the triangular space with Pink Gellac Luxury Gold.  I used a small nail art brush and applied the gold glitter polish very carefully, also in two coats.  I used Pink Gellac Ultra Shine over top to finish off the look.

Magic Pearl is a white gel polish shade with a frosty finish with a golden sheen to it.  I figured that gold glitter would be a great accent to this color, and they do work very well together.  The gold glitter really brings out the golden sheen of Magic Pearl.  Luxury Gold is a dense gold glitter gel polish that is opaque in just two coats.  It’s perfect for accent nails or design accents such as this.

These two colors are available at the Chickettes Boutique, and they are also now available on Amazon.com so you can add them to your holiday wishlist!

I’d love to know what you think of this look.  I wasn’t in love with it at first, but it’s really grown on me since I’ve been wearing it and I’ve received tons of compliments.  :)
