For this mani I used Nails, Inc. Noho, Milani TextureYellow Mark, Milani Texture Aqua Splash, and Milani Texture Spoiled in Fuchsia. I also used my typical Orly base & Sinful Colors Snow Me White for undies.
I'm including my pics I took step by step for a tutorial that I hope you enjoy! The pics may come up a little fuzzy since I'm posting from the phone, but maybe not. I hope not!!!
First I used SMW for a base. I love that I did, because I love the flat, basic white for the lines between the color blocks. Next I used my amazing striping tape to set up my design (leaving extra on the edges for easy removal).
Next, I started painting! I had all 4 colors open for this so I could move fairly quickly. Texture polishes tend to dry pretty rapidly, but I really didn't have problems with application, opacity, or removing my tape!
And here is the finished product! I am in love with this mani, however, when I got out into the light of day I did notice a few errors on my dominant hand. Well, that's sleepy mommy left-handed painting at night for you. Anyone have suggestions for a nice desk lamp that won't overheat or be in the way?
So what do you think?!? I think it's my favorite nail art I have done ever! Just need a little more time & light to perfect it. Alright, off I go to clean again! Talk to you later! :)
