Acid Wash Method Nail Design

Hi Guys,

I did my nails using the Acid Wash Method technique back in June and didn't like the way they turned out and opted not to show them to you.  It looks bizarre but also interesting.  Today I built up enough confidence to show you. Here it goes don't throw tomatoes. Lol! 

After I was done I layered a coat of gold glitter on top.  (Don't remember which one :/) 

 

Items used

First I layered on Surfer Boyz n Berry, let dry next Ocean View, lastly Orange You Fast! I dipped my elf concealer brush in some acetone in various spots on my nails wiping off revealing the colors underneath.    

I tried to make it look better by adding on the gold glitter.  Lol!  I should have left it alone *-*  I'm going to try this method again until I'm satisfied with the result. 

 

You guys are so good at telling me what my designs look like.  Be honest I want to know.

Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

Blue Monday, Dry Brush Graffiti

Before I take off a polish sometimes I try out a design.  For this one I used several blue polishes, wiped the brush inside the bottle much as I could then I swiped what was left on the brush onto the nails creating a dry brush method.  Effortless a graffiti look.

Jessica Barely Blueberry

Blue items: Dare to Wear Oceanview, SH Insta-Dri Teal-y Fast.  Silver:  L.A. Colors Art Deco, silver  
This was a trial and error, next time I'll cover the nails with more dry brush strokes near the cuticle area.

After dry brushing on the blues the last step I applied the silver in a criss-cross motion.

 

Can you tell I like messy designs? Lol! Tell me what you think?





Until next time please have a great nail polish day. (✿◠‿◠)

History

The Los Angeles Clippers first came into existence as the Buffalo Braves in 1970. The Braves were one of three expansion franchises to join the NBA that year (the Portland Trail Blazers and the Cleveland Cavaliers were the other two), as the league dueled with the upstart American Basketball Association for prominence. After struggling through their first few campaigns, the Braves soon found playoff success under the coaching of the legendary Dr. Jack Ramsay and high scoring Bob McAdoo. Unfortunately, drastic changes in the organization's ownership during the 1976-77 season threw the team into a tailspin, resulting in back-to-back losing seasons.

History

The Spurs are one of four former American Basketball Association teams to remain intact in the NBA after the 1976 ABA-NBA merger and is the only former ABA team to have won an NBA championship. The Spurs have won four NBA championships, more than any NBA franchise except the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Lakers, and Chicago Bulls. The Spurs' perfect record in NBA Finals series is surpassed only by the Chicago Bulls, who have won six without a loss;^[1] the Bulls and Spurs are the only two teams to maintain perfect records through multiple Finals series. As of July 2009, the Spurs rank third among active franchises for the highest winning percentage in NBA history; they have only missed the playoffs 4 times as an NBA franchise.
In their 33 NBA seasons since 1976–1977, the Spurs have captured 17 division titles, which gives the Spurs the most division titles in the NBA during that 33-year span (the Lakers are second with 16). They have made the playoffs in 19 of the last 20 seasons, and have not missed the playoffs in the 14 seasons since Tim Duncan was drafted by the Spurs in 1997.
