Day 14 of the Oh Mon Dieu Challenge is FLORAL. I usually think bright springy colors when I hear the word FLORAL… so I went the opposite way with this one. Today’s manicure is a nice warm earthy daisy design!
I started with a few base coats of a unnamed peachy color called Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Nourishing Nail Color from my SH french manicure kit. Then I sponged some Garden Green by AVON on my tips. Garden Green is such a spectacular polish- it’s a deep natural looking green with slight shimmer that makes it glow. And it’s uber-opaque which makes it perfect for nail art. In fact, some of my favorite polishes for nail art are from AVON. I could do a whole post about a yellow called Inspire that I’ve used 7 times already on my blog (wonder if anyone noticed). After all my tips were green, which looked pretty cool BTW, I dotted on some daisies using NYC French White Tip. The center of the daisies was then dotted on using a mustard yellow called Pull Over by Sinful Colors. I added some Revlon Quick Dry Top Coat et voila! Earthy floral french mani with daisies!

Holy crap, that’s an Avon polish? I’ve had issues with their color cosmetics not having enough pigment, so that’s good to know about their polish. This design is perfectly suited for your nail shape, too – beautiful!
Yup- their recent ones seem pretty opaque. My cosmic holos needed three coats- but a lot of the others I’ve gotten recently have been awesome!
This looks so sweet and reminds me of spring 😀
Thanks Kairi!
So pretty and summery
Thanks!! 🙂
Your nails have gotten wonderfully long! I like the green dabbed tips. Looks very mossy 🙂
Yes- mossy! And thanks for the nail compliments! Actually, I just shortened them- but I made them square instead of rounded so they look longer I think 🙂
I love that you did them on the tips! So girly 🙂
I like girly! Thanks Lisa 🙂
Gorgeous and the daisies are adorable! ^^ I have to try this out sometime!
Thank you – and daisies are so easy- you’ll probably like them!
Wow gorgeous! I love nature looking nailarts. This one is just perfect
So pretty! The green tips totally look like grass the way you did them 😀
Great, thanks! That’s what I was goin for! 🙂
So pretty. I love the sponged tips too.

Thanks!!!
This is so pretty, it reminds me of when the flowers are just starting to come up in the spring, and the grass is deep green. 🙂
I love how pretty and understated this is 🙂
