Happy Two Days After Valentine’s Day, Chicas!
It’s been a few weeks since I’ve done my nails so I’m really glad
that I got to do these! I did some for WinterJam and apparently, they looked
like Dino poop. And I also deleted the pics when I thought I had more somewhere
else….Which I didn’t. -__- Gar…
But anyways, I had a lull in my studies and I saw this mani from cutepolish
on Youtube (here) and knew that that was the mani for this week! So cute, so easy. I
bit time consuming when figuring out how I would do it, but so worth it.
Since I didn’t really have any peachy color as what she did, I
painted my nails a solid gold, Pure Ice’s Jaguar, and I covered my entire nail
instead of doing just the French mani style. Two coats isn’t quite enough for
that color to be completely opaque, but with the spots on it, it’s totally
fine.
Once I got all the base color finished, I made the hearts on the ring
and thumb nail on both hands. After that, I used Essie’s Study Case for my brown
spots. I was a bit worried that it was too similar to the gold color, but when
it was outlined with the black it wasn’t too bad. Then you obviously outline
the spots and part of the hearts. That’s really the most time consuming part of
this mani.
A word to the wise…Don’t do the outlining when you’ve had a cup of
coffee that day. Heehee! Did that once and it looked terrible…lol!
Anyways, hope you all had a great V-Day with your special someone! :D
