| El Corazon Aquarelle Tints + Stamping Polish Review, Nail Art |
Last year around this time I had done a nail art inspired by mangoes - my favorite summer fruit. This summers I wanted to try out oranges - inspired not really by the fruit but the El Corazon Aquarelle Tints!
Aquarelle Tints are pale polishes which have an almost jelly like effect on your nails. You can build the color with multiple coats without making it look gloopy. The polishes are great for doing nail art called Leadlight Technique (which I have used on my thumb and middle finger.

| El Corazon Aquarelle Tints 04, 06 and St-02 White Stamping Polish |
For lead light technique you stamp an image on your nail and then fill it in with colors. To do this nail art I first did 2 coats of the Aquarelle Tints shade 04 and 06 alternately on my nail. 04 is yellow while 06 is a pink color. Together they gave me the perfect juicy orange color that I wanted.
Then I used El Corazon white stamping polish to stamp the image of oranges from a stamping plate BM 308. Then I took a few drops of Aquerelle Tint 04 and mixed it with a few drops of Aquerelle Tint 06 on a piece of paper and quickly applied the polish mix to fill in the orange. I kept applying multiple coats of the polish mix to get the 3D effect in the orange slices.
