I painted one coat of a shimmery peach - it was OPI and it was a random polish I grabbed from her stash, no idea what it's called. Then I pressed some red glitter into her tips and dry-brushed down. I stamped her with konad plate m4 and konad white polish and then finished it with tiny clear gems in the centre of each flower.
And this was for her hubby's birthday. I haven't done a cake in ages it seems. I find it more difficult to use fondant when you have nails because it's so easy to nick the icing.
And this was my own mani after removing the last uv gel manicure. It's 2 coats of OPI's Skull and Glossbones.
So the Gelish base coat was a real bugger to remove. I even let it soak for an extra 5 minutes and still had a hard time with it. It's not impossible, but I'm not too happy about it since my Shellac base coat is almost empty and I don't know where to buy it.
And now for my stamping fail. I used China Glaze's Bogie with konad m6 and Kleancolor Metallic Jungle with konad m36. Blech.

I'm honestly not seeing the fail here. :) I like the color combo, the flowers on the tips look good, and the butterflies are fun!
ReplyDeleteI think it's mostly the colour combo I have a problem with. Plus I keep seeing all these girly type manicures and think they look so pretty...until I see them on myself lol. But thanks :)
