Tuesday's Talons

Currently watching: Strictly: It Takes Two

Good evening girls! I hope your week has started well :-) This morning I decided to update my manicure from Sunday by adding animal stripes. I didn't have enough time for stamping so I thought I'd be brave and freehand some stripes using black polish and a striping brush.

I don't think it's too bad for my first attempt but there's a lot of room for improvement

(The glitter you can see on my pinky nail is Kleancolor Holo Pink. I added this on Monday but only to the only nail out of curiousity)

Unfortunately we're now getting to the time of year when I leave home in the dark and come back in the dark meaning taking clear photos during the day is becoming increasingly difficult.

Do you like this manicure girls? Any tips on how I could improve my animal stripes?

Bye for now,
Laura

  6. @Fingers, aw thanks :-) I bet you could do just as well though!

    @Theodora, thank you! Much less time consuming than stamping :-) Although I didn't show any pics of the right hand as that freehand was a lot messier lol

    @Sandra, thanks :-)

    @Polish and Charms, thank you!

    @Iris, thanks :-) It may possibly be my new favourite polish!

    @Super cute, aw thanks! But my right hand looked a lot worse! More practice needed :-)
