Tribal Nails



I was inspired by this nail art wheel I found on Instgram done by Allison Davey of Pinky's Nails, a local nail art studio in the city. I was also inspired after watching a video by Robin Moses called Indie Chic. The design itself is really intricate and detailed so I was scared to try it at first but I challenged myself and just went for it. I hope it looks okay :S

I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails as the orange-ish gold and Essie Going Incognito as the forest green. The gold is a Forever 21 Love & Beauty polish. Anddd some acrylic paint in black and white. Also a fine stripper brush. Unfortunately I don't know the name of the orange cuz I polished over the label on the cap :s

So... What do you guys think?

UPDATE: I smudged my thumb and was unsatisfied with my index finger for the longest time so I changed those two nails.
