*about knowing which colours match* there are some colours which are opposites on the colour wheel-meaning they both contrast & naturally compliment each other (blue & orange, green & red, purple & yellow). Those colours suit each other, but look bold when put together, because obviously they are very different. If you want colours that suit each other, but are more subtly different then look at colours that are next to each other on the wheel (green & yellow, purple & blue, etc).Hope that helps
AnonymousThank you very much for the help. This actually helps a lot.
Let the holiday nails commence! This mani was painted using Dare to Wear Holiday Lights (an amazing X-mas holo glitter polish), American Apparel Hunter, American Apparel Cotton, and OPI Just a Little Rosti at This.
I need this glitter.
I never know how to match colors to do nail art.
Like how do people just *know* what colors go well together. I always want to do nail art that requires more than one color but the 2 colors I pick end up not matching or looking funky together. Do they swatch them first or do they just know how colors mesh or what?
So I’ve been seeing a lot of tattoo lettering on nails and I was wondering if you guys know anything about old school navy tattoos? Well, I didn’t until I went to the World War II museum in New Orleans and they had a little poster on ‘em. HOLD FAST - often across the knuckles, as support when pulling a line. The anchor represents safety and the sparrow ensures a safe journey home.
