I went to another Vintage Fair this weekend and always do my Vintage style nails when attending one. Instead of a normal rounded half moon, I thought I'd try a sticky tape zigzag theme instead, as this seems to be the 'in' thing in the manicure world at the moment!
I started with a thin coat of a generic Black and a coat of Seche QD cause I'm super impatient. After about 10 minutes I stuck my zigzagged cut pieces of tape along my cuticles and pressed down firmly.
Starting with a black base meant that I had to seriously layer my top color and because I picked OPI Cajun Shrimp, which is a thin sheer Coral, I had to do 3 coats of it to make it appear opaque.
When it was dry I peeled off the tape and finished with a coat of Seche QD.
Easy peasy, just a little time consuming waiting for layers to dry. I recommend doing this watching a not so interesting movie.
Have a nice Sunday!
Gook idea, i love.

ReplyDeleteI really like this mani, specially the combination of colours (I love contrasting colours in nails).
ReplyDeleteFun! I like the zig-zag look, it's a little bolder than a standard moon mani
