Geometric Gem

To recreate this look on yourself, paint your nails with milky white polish, letting them dry before creating a small orange triangle on a few fingers as an accent. Then, use an ink-black shade and a thin brush to create different styles of leaves—perfection not required, as nature features plenty of variety.
