Neon Tribal Nail Art using Orly Glowstick

Today I have a fun tribal design to show you.
I knew I had to do nail art with Orly - Glowstick because it's so vibrant; the black nail polish just seemed to pop against the neon base.

It's simple and I used a black nail art pen to draw the tribal design.
I used 1 coat of China Glaze - White on White before using 2 coats of Glowstick.

You can see that it wasn't easy taking the pictures with such a bright base.

I personally like the design on my thumb and ring finger the most.

Do you like these neon tribal nails?

Thanks for reading.

    I wish I had a steady finger. If I have to really concentrate on being still, I always have some type of spasm. It's so weird!!! I'm always afraid I am going to kick the pedicurist in the face when I have to sit still for those... lol.

    1. Hey Britt,
      Thanks for your lovely comment. It took me lots of practice to get where I am today and even then I still think I'm unsteady.
      You're probably focusing on concentrating so hard that you can't help but feel like moving. It happens :P

  2. You are very creative and I envy your ability! I can't paint my own nails to save my life but I have fun doing my daughter's. She will love some of your designs. Can't wait to try!

    1. Oh wow, thanks Sandy! It does require a bit of practice. I was horrible (!!) at it in the beginning. I'd love to see your version of these nails. :D

  5. Yes I'll give it a go; I've been playing around with new colours lately and even experimenting with a bit of glitter but that's about the limit of my nail art talents so far :P . Might see if I can convince my friend to let me practice on her first... easier to do it on someone else I expect?

    1. Experimenting is the way to go! Let me know how it goes :D Practicing on someone would be great! Sadly I have no one to practice on so it's been all my own nails. I do love painting nails for other people though. :)
