#SGSwatchFest: Spring Nails

Hey lovelies! Couple weeks ago, a few of us came together for our first #SGSwatchFest with Femme Fatale Cosmetics Winter Hyacinth and it was such a hit, we're now planning for many more #SGSwatchFests to come.

Today, a couple of us were supposed to meet and show off our latest Spring themed nails and I was really excited to finally meet some of the girls I've come to know in our local polish scene. Unfortunately, during my lunch, just hours before our meeting, I suddenly came down with serious abdominal pains and I started throwing up so I had to take a rain check. :(

I did my spring nails last night though, in anticipation of the meetup and here they are!



This was actually the inspiration behind the mani:



I saw this mani article in yesterday's Urban newspaper and I it was such a fit for this #SGSwatchFest so I decided to paint my nails like that too!





According to the article, they used Butter London Cuppa (nude base), Trout Pout (pinkie), Artful Dodger (ring), Kerfuffle (middle), Jasper (index) and Molly-Coddled (thumb).

For my version, I used Essie Sand Tropez for my base colour, China Glaze Lemon Fizz (thumb), Essie A Crewed Interest (index), OPI Done Out In Deco (middle), Color Club Take Me To Your Chateau (ring) and Essie Navigate Her (pinkie).



I haven't done *any* form of nail art in a very long time and with the whole glitter indie craze, I got lazy but this mani was so easy to do and it's a great way to break into the whole nail art thing again!





Loving this spring mani so much! Looking forward to the next #SGSwatchFest! :)
