Colourful triangle pattern nails

Hey there!! You're probably busy right now just cause everything always seems to be busy. But while it's busy I hope that it's also worthwhile. One of the reasons I've been posting less is cause I have my Grade 8 piano coming up in less than a month and a girl has to practice and keep her nails short. But short nails can still have sweet designs.

Triangles are my favourite shape, they're just edgier than circles and squares. I think about shapes more than most cause I do A level maths. It's hard, I'm sure you guys who've done it know that. Anyway getting away from maths I love the bright colours and just how cool the triangle pattern looks. It's just mega fun.

I used toothpicks to freehand this as usual, as you can tell the triangles are not all the same size but that doesn't bother me. It's just so uniform and I like that sometimes.

Yellow: Rimmel - Sunshine
Red: OPI - Jinx
Orange: Essie - Fear Or Desire
Green: Barry M - Kiwi
Blue: Barry M - Malibu

Thank you so much for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day!! :)

Tessellating Triangle Nails

Hey there!! Life's been a little bit hectic lately but I'm trying to find balance. My whole life I've been trying to find balance and I don't think I've got there yet, balance is hard. So today I have some funky cool geometric nails, I just love triangles so here I am more triangles but colourful ones that look quite cool.

I had a silver base and I guess I just wanted some geometric nails then I saw a cool triangle pattern. I painted the triangles with the flow cause I just kind of gave up with following the pattern. So I went a bit loose and free with the triangles. I have to say the textured polishes made the design, the extra sparkle and something something was really significant.

I used my toothpicks and just freehanded them triangles. When it came to positioning I tried to get them all the same size (hard, it was hard and I didn't complete succeed) and I just guessed where the triangles would fit in the design. It was quite successful overall I guess. All the colours do make me happy.
