Pride 2019

Originally posted on June 14, 2019.

For my second Pride Month mani this year I decided to revisit my Pride design from last year and bring in some more flags! 🏳️‍🌈

As lovely as the rainbow flag is, I really wanted to give some visibility to the diverse identities within the LGBTQIA+ community and I was really happy to see so many positive responses to this design last year. 

I wanted to build on that this year to make this series even more inclusive, so this year I've added 5 more flags to the mix! I had a really tough time deciding which flags to go with - just like last year I wish I could have included more flags, but that just means I'll have to add on to this series again next year! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Since each nail uses different colours for the flags/hearts, I'm going to break the products used down by individual nail today instead of just giving the combined list.
