WHAT I’M WEARING: Chelsea O’Connor, Nails By Chelsea
By Sophie Nutt | 23 December 2018 | Feature, Tech Talk
We want to see what you’re wearing on your nails!
Chelsea O’Connor, of Nails By Chelsea, wears an icy nail look, inspired by fond memories of making snow angels.
“I created the nails using coloured acrylic from Glam And Glits. I chose blue and silver for a wintery look. I created the snow angel by applying a thin base layer of silver acrylic followed by a layer of no wipe top coat. I sprinkled white acrylic powder into the wet top coat, then used a dotting tool to draw the snow angel, revealing the silver underneath. I then cured the design and fully encapsulated in clear acrylic.
“I love a traditional white Christmas and wanted something to represent this special time of year. I combined inspiration from my love for winter, and a beautiful set by Sarah’s Nail Secrets.
“What I love most about this design is how they remind me of being a child, enjoying a white Christmas and making snow angels.”
