Freehand Aztec Nails

Good morning, dear readers!

Today's manicure is an Aztec inspired design.  My sister made this absolutely gorgeous jade green polish called Aztec, and it love it!  So, I had to do an Aztec design on it.  :D






I used black non-toxic paint and Orly Luxe for this design.  I then used China Glaze Fast Forward top coat.
For the photos above I did not have my light box up and running, but I did for the ones below (since I took those photos before leaving the cables at my friends place :s).
Now for Aztec by itself:



Isn't this a beauty?  I LOVE this polish!! :D  It also applied like a dream!

Take care everyone, and I hope that your weekend is awesome! :D

Bethany Taylor said...

This may sound a little crazy, but if past lives are possible, I definitely feel drawn to the Aztecs and the Mayans. There's something so beautiful and mystical about these ancient cultures! I think you could do an incredible ancient Chinese or Japanese mani!

Nory O. said...

Wow this is an amazing design! I had never seen an Aztec mani before, it's gorgeous!

Anutka said...

That looks AMAZING!!!!

Ashesela said...

@ SeeSarahSwatch: Thank you so much!! :D I really appreciate it! :D No dying allowed though! ^-^ You are so sweet!

@ Bethany Taylor: I have definitely been planning on a Japanese manicure. I LOVE Japanese culture and the Edo period art. It’s funny that you mentioned past lives; when I was in high school (quite a few years ago) I would love making Japanese art, and my teacher told me that she believed I was Japanese in a past life. ^-^ I thought that was pretty cool! :D Ancient civilisations and cultures are so fascinating!! :D

@ Nory O.: Thank you so much, I’m really glad you like it! :D

@ Anutka: :’D Thank you so much!! ^-^

@ Amanda: Thank you so much!! :D I told my sister what you said. ^-^ And thank you again so very much!!! :’D

@ Polish and Charms: Thank you so very much!!!! :’D
