Green Mango Cat Eye Nails with 3D Water Droplets
Fresh, glossy and full of dimension, this manicure combines green mango cat eye with a soft pink shimmer and 3D water droplets.
I used Kokoist x Nail Thoughts Lucky Charm, manipulating the magnetic shimmer to create a soft glow that changes as the nails move. The glossy 3D droplets add texture and give the finished nails that fresh, juicy appearance.
It’s a simple example of how colour, finish and texture can create an interesting nail design without needing lots of hand-painted detail.
