Hi guys. It's time for my favorite day of the week, Red Coat Tuesday. But this week will actually be the last Red Coat one for the season because the finale of Pretty Little Liars is tonight. You won't find any spoilers in this post so feel free to continue reading on. For those of us who watch the show, it's definitely going to be a nail biter! Will we find out who A is? I don't think we will, but I do think we'll be receiving answers to some of our questions. At least that's this fan-girls hope!
Being that it's the last episode of the season, I had to make my nail art match the momentum. I have seriously thought about doing this design with Red Coat for the last two seasons, but never had the courage to attempt it. How do you guys think it turned out?
Here's the materials used to create this look:
- Polishes: Zoya Rekha, OPI My Vampire is Buff, and Sally Hansen Xtreme Line Black Out
- Acrylic Paint: American Craft Red, Brick Red, Yellow, Honey Brown, Black
- Makeup Sponge & Detail Brush
- Fast Drying Topcoat: Seche Vite
I'll be honest with you guys, I didn't record a video because I was pretty sure this wouldn't come out very well. So many regrets. You'd think I would learn to make sure my camera is turned on at all times when nail art is involved by now.
Red Coat is done entirely in acrylic paint over a nude base by OPI called My Vampire is so Buff. I used a fine detail brush that I trimmed down myself to my liking. I actually didn't spend as much time as I thought I would on this. About an hour and a half straight, but that does include letting my paint dry so I could go over it with another tone. It was definitely worth dedicating my night to though, I love how this turned out so much!
How do you guys think it turned out? Will you be watching the season finale of Pretty Little Liars tonight?
Your nails came out great! I love the creativity. It looks like you've been doing this for a while.

ReplyDeleteOmg AMAZING!!!! I keep saying it but you are so so so talented! Do you think they will really tell us thetruth???? I'm dying to find out !! I read the books already so I'm super excited to see if they take the same route:)

ReplyDeleteOh em gee. How amazing. I'm obsessed with PLL and these are just incredible! Love them!
ReplyDeleteCompletely awesome mani, love it! And I don't even watch the show :-)
ReplyDeleteYou always have the most fascinating nails I've ever seen. I would love to be able to put on just one style right and make it look presentable.
ReplyDeleteI haven't really watched that show, I've heard so much about it. I love what you did with the nails today though! Maybe I'll have to give the show a try.
ReplyDeleteI love the Red Coat Nail!! How funny....I love PLL...but haven't watched this recent season yet...I have it all DVR'd, but haven't been in the mood to watch it! I am sure the mood will strike soon!
ReplyDeleteI love how the red blends into the black. I'm not a fan of the show, so I'm not that crazy about the coat. But the nails are awesome! You do a great job!
ReplyDeleteNo TV, so I won't be watching but I love your freehand art!
ReplyDeleteI don't watch the show so I don't know the story but I love what you did with your nails. So pretty!
ReplyDeleteWow, these are awesome! This is actually the first episode of the season that I watched at the time it aired. I'm not completely satisfied with how it ended up but it was better than I was expecting (I like to keep my expectations low).
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing. The Zoya nail color is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteZoya is one of my favorite nail polish brands. I love that red color that you have on! It's such a wonderful color!!!
ReplyDeleteI love that red color and your nail art is very awesome! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI use ZOYA nail color too! I’ve been such a fan because it doesn’t chip as much as other brands! Love this color on you!
ReplyDeleteI am not going to lie, I didn't read much of this post because I am waaaaay far behind where you are and don't want to see spoilers. BUT I ADORE your nails!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, you are so talented! I can't get enough of your nail art!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the show but your nails turned out pretty awesome if I may so. Wow! Great Job!
ReplyDeleteAmazing job! My sis and I love PLL, and we were very excited about finally getting some answers. We were a bit disappointed because we expected to actually see the person's face. Not going to mention anything specific because I don't want to spoil it for anyone. I can't wait for the Summer premiere to find out more about A and their motive.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the gradient!
ReplyDeleteI love how that turned out! The details on that are great. I have no patience for nail art so I have a great admiration for those who can do it.
ReplyDeleteI think this looks awesome and very mysterious!
ReplyDeletei normally don't do anything creative with my nails, but I love this idea! I'm a big fan of PLL, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love how creative and fun this is.
ReplyDeleteYou are so great at making such clever designs for your nails. I love the red with the black tips and of course the coat is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love your nails! My daughter and i watch Pretty Little Liars together. I am so excited for the next episode.
ReplyDeleteI've been watching this show every week since it started. Its almost shameful that I've become so attached to it at my age! LOL
ReplyDeleteThis is AMAZING! WOW!
ReplyDeleteThat is some awesome nail art! I wish I could do something like that, I am almost done with one of my many shows to catch up on but this is one I want to start.
ReplyDeleteI never got into this show, but I have to say that manicure is amazing! I love how cool it looks!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of that show because we don't have cable anymore but your nails look hot! =)
ReplyDeleteThat gradient is just perfection! I love it so much!
ReplyDeleteFirst I love your gradient, it's incredibly perfect! And your accent nail art is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodness…how creative is this!!! I love the artwork and the detail. That is real dedication to spend that many hours for coats to dry. Very cool! I don't watch Pretty Little liars, but I caught one episode that made me interested. Might add it to my Netflix list.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE you nails, HATED the finale!! Who the heck is Charles???

My daughter and I have watched the show for a couple years! I love this nail art. I can not believe how you were able to do such an intricate design.
ReplyDeleteYour nails came out great! I love how the red fades into the black! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose look fabulous! I have the worst luck trying to do nail art. I don't have a steady hand at on. Never watched the show!
ReplyDeleteI love this, from now on I will learn nail art like this. I will do this at home.
ReplyDeletewow this is amazing! I also love the gradient, that was one I wanted to attempt during Red coat tuesdays this season but never got around to it. Hopefully next season!
