30 Days of Colour: Orange pond nails "Autumn leaves"

Introduction

It's an orange day and I love orange, so I prepared something very special. It's improved and upgrade with flakie top coat version of my quit popular autumn nail design. This nail art is done using pond technique and I combine layers of home made neon orange jelly with stamping and layers of flakie polish Up Colors Flocado Base, which I also used as a top coat. Pond nails are time consuming as you absolutely must wait for nail polish to dry before layers, but amazing result totally worth it. I love this look so much, because my favorite part of the autumn is colorful leaves, and I do not care that autumn is so far away. At least I can have them on my nails. Do not forget to see macro at the end it's gorgeous.

  1. This is the most creative pond mani that I've ever seen. How many layers of the jelly did you use before you stamped the couple or did you paint a layer stamp then repeat?
