The X-Out Nail Project

I was recently contacted by a representative for X-Out, a new skincare line from the people that make Proactiv. As it turns out, the brand is running a nail art series with some bloggers, and asking them to create nail art looks inspired by the branding/packaging. Because the brand is about confidence, for every enlisted blogger that agrees to participate (like moi), the brand will donate $200 to Pacer’s National Bullying Prevention Centera national organization that helps prevent bullying. This is what I created!

I saw this lovely design in a video tutorial made by Mr. Candiipants. It’s such an easy breezy technique but the results look like they took much longer than they actually did!

For this manicure, I combined two nail wraps with some water marbling and half moon designs. By doing a mix up manicure, you can extend the life of a sheet of nail wraps up to 5x!
