I've been meaning to post this since Monday, but I've been been a bit busy. Cleaning up and so forth. I've also had to shorten my nails as the normal culprit started tearing again and that was with a patch. At least I have some length, but you'll only see them next year.
Anyway, I wanted to do a green mani, but I couldn't think of an appropriate green that felt christmassy. And then I remembered Michelle gifted me some awesome greens for my bday. And Nubar Conserve was perfect for what I had in mind.
I used Tip Top Miraculous Results for my base as it has a milky effect and not just a clear base. On my thumb and pinky I have two coats of Conserve. I could have gotten away with just one, but bald patches. On my index and ring finger I used these half circle vinyl things from TwinkledT and placed the round side against my cuticle and the straight side was exactly halfway through my nail. Perfect size :)
For I middle finger I just used striping tape for the negative space. Then I used some loose glitter from BPS for the lines.
I loved how this turned out. So elegant, LoL. What to you think?
Thanks for reading.
Awesome!!! As soon as I can polish my nails again, I'm going to try something like this... consider yourself bookmarked :)
ReplyDeleteHaha I read about your predicament. I did giggle a little imagining you trying to paint your nails :) Can't wait to see what you do with it.
