Hi there! Today’s post is about another mani I did for the 31 Days Nail Art Challenge. This mani is for challenge #30 Inspired By A Tutorial.
I was looking for cute and summery mani ideas online – and I found an easy looking tutorial for melon nails.
I tried to recreate those melon nails but, of course, I failed miserably. So I came up with a much easier melon mani (well, sort of).
For this mani I painted my nails with Astor Fashion Studio 002 Cotton Candy (pinky, ring and middle fingers, 2 coats) and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri 50 In Record Lime (index fingers, thumbs, 2 coats).
I applied loose black glitter hexagons (the only black glitter I have) to my middle fingers, and I top-coated all my nails with Orly Love Each Other.
I think this mani turned out alright. I have zero (nail) art skills, I can’t even draw a straight line. However, I’m proud of myself for coming up with a simple ‘solution’. So whilst the mani didn’t turn out the way I hoped, I was inspired by a tutorial. So somehow I actually nailed this challenge! Now wait for my interpretation of kiwi nails! 😀
I really like this look, it’s a bit of a different way of doing it and the mix of green and pink together always makes me think of summer ☺️

Merci! 🙂
To me it’s more like ‘watermelon nails for dummies’. So I’m happy you’d say it’s a deconstructed watermelon. 🙂
