Hi all!
It's the third Tri Polish Tuesday of this month already! I prepared this nearly two weeks ago when I had a week off from work. Any resemblance to The Nail Newbie's mani from last week is completely coincidental, I swear! We just think alike sometimes it seems *winks*.
My polishes for this week:
- Barry M - MNP3 Caramel
- Essence - 106 Free hugs
- NYC - 003 Prey of Grey
And again 3 completely different polishes, but they fit the assigned colours!
My base is two easy coats of Caramel, love this colour and the matte finish. On my index and pinky I simply dotted, I have never done a completely dotted nail before like this, but I've always loved skittle manis that had them. It was time I tried it as well. On my middle fingernail I applied stripes with a striping brush. This was my first attempt using those brushes I got months ago, I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out.
My thumb as a combination of dots and stripes, the stripes didn't come out that well though. Let's pretend these were the first stripes I ever did (shush, it was the last nail I did) *winks*. I did a different combination of stripes and dots on my ring fingernail. I do like this mix, yay for skittles! I also deliberately did not add top coat, I did not want to ruin the matte finish of Caramel. Besides, the slight texture of the dots and stripes is interesting.
Have you worked with striping brushes?
