Busy Girl's Summer Nail Art Challenge | Week 1 Stripes


I'm so excited to share my first post for the Busy Girl's Summer Nail Art Challenge! This week's mani is Stripes. I used Pure Ice's Platinum Magic Base Coat, Sally Hansen's Insta-Dri in Man-Go Team! and Maybelline's Color Show in Coral Glow. 

I've seen some great stripe manis this week already! If you would like to share your busy girl summer nails, just tag us on Instagram: @beautybyarielle, @beautybykrystal, @mirandasmakeup, and me, @drinkcitra and use the hashtag #busygirlnails so we can see your creations! 

You can also share your manis on your blogs and send us your links via Twitter or blog comment :)

  6. I love this color combo, Traci!! I agree with what Victoria said - perfect for summer. I don't feel like I've ever seen those colors together, striped in that way! Great job -- I want to be part of the challenge but I'm sad my nails broke and are all short now lol waaahhhh
