Day 6: Neon OMD Challenge

As I've mentioned before I'm currently running off an essentials only polish collection therefore the only true neon polish I have is an Orly yellow "Hook Up" so I decided to pair it with NYC "Greenwich Village" and Essie "Sunday Funday" to make a sunrise gradient. I then stamped palm trees on top in black from a Konad Plate.
The palm trees only had outlines of the leaves but to achieve the look I wanted I filled them in with my Barry M black nail art pen. This would not photograph well, it looks so much better in real life
I love this :) the black detailing removes a little of the in your face brightness making it much more wearable and much more interesting. Check out everyone else's neon manicures here.

      Unfortunately the sun was never out while I had this on, I really enjoyed wearing it though :)

    I love this, Hook-up is a fantastic colour! I just picked up a bottle and have been dying to try it.

    I bet this mani look fantastic when the sun is really shining on it.

      I have four Orly neon minis and they're all great, Hook up is just a perfect highlighter yellow :)
