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.

Part 3 of my US haul

Here's the rest of my nail polish haul from the US. Some of my favorite nail colors are here and I'm excited to show them to you!

Orly - Glowstick
This is fantastic! I love this neon yellow. It's everything that a neon yellow should be. I would suggest layering it over white polish to make the color pop. It really does make a difference. I'll definitely be wearing this all summer long.

Maybelline Color Show - Impeccable Greys
I love gray polishes. Obsessed with gray polishes. Tell you what I think of this gray in a later post.

China Glaze Holographic - Infra Red
My first holographic nail polish everrr! I thought I'd already bought too many colors so I decided to pick one out of all the other polishes from the Holographic Collection. It was tough just settling on one!

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Lickety Lime Split
Ooh, I wish I hadn't bought this :( I have a similar green that's also from Sally Hansen. There is a difference in color but I wish I'd picked another color instead. That's the problem with thinking you have too few greens in your collection.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri - Mint Sprint
Now this is a different story. I adore this minty green. It's bold and bright but not neon.

Essie - Play Date
I'm obsessed with Essie nail polish. They're worth every single penny! This is a really good orchid polish. It's almost a one coater - so rich and smooth that it just glides on!

I'm a clumsy nail painter so I usually accidentally fudge my nails before they dry and when that happens I can't seem to repair the damage but with Play Date, I just dabbed a little polish to cover the dent and it smoothed out so perfectly!

Essie - The Girls Are Out
I am in LOVE with Essie - The Girls Are Out. It is such a beautiful shade of magenta and the shimmer just adds to the loveliness. Great formula and super glossy finish - ideal! I've been wearing this a lot as well. Can't get enough of it.

Wait for the posts of the swatches!
