Watermelon Manicure

When it comes to nail polish, my philosophy is have fun with it. I change my polish a ridiculous amount of times during the week.  From neutrals to neon’s and everything in between, as you know, sometimes instead of one polish I like to polish three nails one color and two another.  This weekend I went with a watermelon manicure using Shelby by Zoya (the ideal bubblegum pink) and Tracie by Zoya. 
I begin by using Ridge Filler for a base coat. This will even out the nails as well as enrich and strengthen.

    What a super fun mani! I never paint my nails as I cannot stand having a chip and it usually occurs within 48 hours! LOL xoxo A-

    Fun idea!! I have been using the bubblegum pink nail with a reddish/magenta pink on the ring finger nail :) I might have to steal your idea of the reddish pink and orange accent nail one of these days!!

    i love this!! i am also seriously impressed with your painting skills. I get the polish everywhere on my fingers. But i guess since you rock and change your polish out all the time, that is how you got so good!! i loved your tip of using ridge filler for base coat. i use out the door as my top coat too. any other tips you could share?? :)

    This is awesome!! You definitely have great painting skills. I am going to have to go out and get the ridge filler and cuticle oil. You have inspired me to paint my nails more often!
