I’m a nerd, so I love doing themed nail art. I can’t find my camera cord at the moment, but I will post higher quality pictures as soon as I do! I also did my toes and am considering posting those here The bottom two photos are my left and my right big toes respectively. I cropped them so you could only see the nail art, so hopefully that doesn’t skeeve anyone out too badly! (I know it’s a little bit of a faux pas to post pedicure pictures, but I do nail art on my toes, too!) Here goes…

I got the idea for this look after a girl came to the counter looking for some bright new eyeshadow combinations. We picked out a few colors together and essentially allowed me to do whatever I wanted. I came up with a look similar to this and loved it so much I had to try it on myself!
