The OMD2 nail art challenge has almost been live for 1 week – only 3 more to go! I’ve already seen so many fantastic designs, it’s truly inspiring.

Today’s post is combining the last two days of prompts, “bright” and “dark” as I think they go together quite nicely.

Bright

This nail art design was created using an ombre sponging technique over a white base (see my Ombre tutorial here).

Polishes Used:

  • China Glaze: You Drive Me Coconuts and Yellow Polka Dot Bikini

I then applied NCLA transparent leather nail wraps over the design as I thought this would give them a funky look.

Although not my best and a little rushed, I still like how this design turned out. A little edgy for the summer.

Dark

This nail art design is a little on the edgy side as well, and certainly not summer-ready but I absolutely love chocolate and black together, so there you go.

Polishes Used:

  • Sinful Colors: Black on Black
  • Zoya: Louise
  • Studs: From Claire’s
  • Motive Costmetics: Matte Topcoat

I hope you enjoyed these looks. The next few days are looking shimmery and sparkly! Stay tuned for more nail art.

Until next time,
