More Beach Nails – Sand and Water

I thought I’d show you how I did my daughter’s nails for our vacation. She wanted something beach-themed with sand, so I did this design that looks like the water crashing on the sand. I started with two coats of ibd Dockside Diva, topped with one coat of Gelish Vegas Nights. Those two colors alone looked really pretty, and she said she’s going to do her nails just like that next time.

I randomly applied blue from the tip to the center of the nail using ibd Swag Bag. After curing, I then took a make-up sponge and applied white to get the appearance of the foamy water on the beach. I used my Mundo de Unas white stamping polish for this. After letting it dry completely, I applied a thin coat of TIO.
