In this series, nail artist JUNKO shares her tips on easy and stylish nail art. Today's brand is O.P.I. (O.P.I.), a nail specialty brand known to all nail polish lovers. "Color blocking is a given, but in recent years, playing with texture combinations has become trendy. For this nail art, I used O.P.I.'s new 'Color Paints' collection, which was just released on July 1st. Combining eight clear, syrupy colors with a silver base creates a three-dimensional effect. The process is very simple, but it allows for a truly 3D nail art experience," says JUNKO. Layering nail lacquer from the 'Color Paints' series over a silver base creates vivid color. Because it's transparent, you can enjoy mixing colors by layering, creating a variety of artistic nail designs. The metallic, colorful colors match a variety of summer occasions, from resort wear to bikini styles. We recommend pairing your nail art with accessories for your hands and feet, such as clear PVC bangles or metallic sandals.
