The Nail Challenge Collaborative presents: Stripes - Black Plaid


Hi all!

After I did last week's Nostalgic plaid mani, I couldn't shake the idea of inverting it. So that's exactly what I did, except that I used two multichromes this time.


Today's polishes:


I started with a black base and then added stripes with my striping brush. The nails either have a double Mutagen and single Nostalgia stripe, or vice versa. I sealed it in with G&G HK Girl top coat.



I tried to capture the colour shifts, but they are less obvious, there was an angle where Mutagen and Nostalgia were both green (just different shades). Unfortunately I didn't capture it on camera.



I like these, but to get the most out of the colour shifts, a base of the multichrome like I did last week would be better!

More stripey goodness down here!

  1. These look amazing! I like how they stripes seem to be glowing from within.

  2. I never know how to combine multichrome polishes and today you showed me :) Both polishes look super cool on black!

    1. Thank you! I think Lucy's Stash has done some nail art with multi chromes in the past as well (also ILNP ones), you should check those out!
