As for nails, manicurist Michelle Saunders used Essie products to created a 3D water color inspired look.

How To Get The Nail Look:

1. Apply one coat of Blanc to make the polish shades appear brighter

2. Beginning at the nail bed, apply one coat of Bikini So Teeny to half of the nail

3. Next, apply one coat of Turquoise & Caicos to the remaining half of the nail, slightly overlapping with Bikini So Teeny in the middle

4. Next, dip a striping brush in Lollipop and create a thin horizontal fault line across each nail (do this step to one hand at a time, as the red polish needs to be wet in order to create the watercolor effect)

5. Directly after creating the fault line, apply a generous amount of good to go top coat over the entire nail; continue to blend towards the tip of the nail until the desired look is achieved Click here to purchase the colors used to create this look!
