It has been such an exciting week in Motives! We have been working hard to develop and test the newly launched Motives products and could not wait to share them with you! One of the products that I am most excited about are our new Nail Lacquer colors, with new formulas and bottles. From trendy fall and winter colors to shocking brights, Motives and Motives for La La has introduced a wide array of Nail Lacquer for you to enjoy.
Recently, I was able to play with two of my favorite Motives Nail Lacquer colors – Swagger and Amnesia. I created a funky french manicure, using the bright orange Amnesia as the tip to the neutral grey Swagger base.
To get this look, first paint two coats of Swagger as your base color. Allow to completely dry. (Trust me on this – if your nail lacquer is not completely dry, it will peel off when you take the tape off)
Next, for super-straight tips, apply tape to the completely dry base color, leaving only the tips exposed.
Paint the exposed tip with a bright color. I chose Motives for La La Nail Lacquer in Amnesia.
Finally, once the tip color has completely dried, slowly peel the tape off to reveal your very own funky french manicure. Here are my final results:
