Nail Art: Blue Hoo

Please don't hate me. I am struggling with a lot of things lately and it seems like everything is on a downward spiral. But the thing is, my passion to do my nails has a lot to do with the way I feel. A dampened spirit is not such a good motivation for some personal nail art session. Fortunately, I was going to a meeting as a nail art blogger and I didn't want my nails to be bare. And as I uploaded the photos, I realized that I did another blue themed design very similar to the last one I shared. When you are blue, it is inevitable to unconsciously wear blue?

Here it is:



I particularly like abstract designs especially when I need something that is easy and quick to create. Hence, another abstract nail art from moi.

If you are wondering about the name -- Blue Hoo -- it is actually a stand in for "boo hoo" which means crying. I know, it's corny. But sometimes, we need a little corny in our life, right?


I used 2 coats of OPI Eurso Euro, a true blue creme nail polish. I believe I've used this color a few times already as base for a nail art.

The design is freehand, done with acrylic paints and a detail nail art brush.


I didn't have a particular pattern in mind. But I did decide to create an ombre look by using only blue shades. What makes this design easy to create is that fact that anything goes and minimal precision required! You don't have to worry about fine or straight lines. My only concern was to get the colors opaque and to make the manicure look neat.


I am clueless to what the results looks like, but I simply loved it. It still looks like wrapping paper on the nails and I really don't mind because I think that's where the appeal comes from.

Another thing I like about abstracts is you can look down on your nails in any angle and it wouldn't matter. It will be beautiful in whatever way you'll look at it. Don't you agree?


Well, I hope I can get my act going so I can post more nail art designs. I promise to do my best. For now, I hope my Blue Hoo will not disappoint. :)
