Lavender + Purple Chevrons Manicure




Since my nail videos have been well received, I've been thinking back to past manicures that I can revisit in video form. This manicure was last seen in May 2011 and I called it the Chevron Half-Moon Mani. This time around, I chose to do it in shades of purple. I chose Love & Beauty's Lavender as the base and hand painted chevrons at the base of each nail using Love & Beauty's Dark Purple.




Take a peek at my technique in this video. Note how I start each chevron by placing three dots in the center of each nail and paint a line from the edge to the dot.




If you enjoyed the video,  please give it a thumbs up!
