Tiger/Zebra look...

So today i decided to do a zebra look but every one tells me its more of a tiger look lol. The way i did this look was a little unorthodox but hey it worked for me. First i used american manicure as a base to give the base to give the bottom of the nail a peachy look. Then i use OPI's Red Hot Gift as the red tip, to me the red was way to shiny so i decided to put essie's matte about you on top and it achieved the muted red color i was going for. Then i free handed the black and added glitter and a black line and then i topped it off with seche vite top coat (which i know your not suppose to top coat a matte polish but it turned out fabulous..) then wallah you have the look. I must admit doing the stripes was easier than i thought. I always looked at zebra stripes and said it was so complicated to do but then i just went for it and it came to be easy.

What I used to complete the look:

4th of July Nails Trial 1

Okay so I LOVVVE doing theme nails, and the 4th of July is no acceptance to my rule, I usually plan the nails im going to do a few day in advance so this in trial number one... For this I used Sally Hansen's Cherry Red and White On.. And For the Blue I used on of my nail art stripe polish in Miss Envy Blue (I am pretty sure i got it from a hair supply store)... But since my nails are already painted, i am using LuLu my practice finger.. Oh and sorry in advance about the picture quality.

Okay so this is Nail 1 of Trial 1:

Im actually going to put Red and Blue Rhinestones where the colors meet, I just didnt want to waste all those pretty rhinestones on a trial finger

This is Nail 2 of Trial 1:

Here i used red and blue glitter lines to add some PIZZAZ to the design (sorry you cant se the glitter lines well).

And Finally Nail 3 of Trial 1:

This one has a glitter lines and a single rhinestone in the middle... But for some reason this one reminds me of Texas.. WEIRD because i hate Texas lol...

With White Out Comes, a Red Hot Gift

Okay so I looove doing crosswords... and I typically do them in pen, well long story short I needed some white out to fix an error i made and it exploded all over my flower manicure :(... It sucked because i wanted to rock my flowers for another day or two.. but Oh well when life throws you lemons make lemonade i guess? For the new manicure I did, I used OPI's "Red Hot Gift" and Art Club's "Solid Silver" to complete the look... This should be on for a day or two because my PATRIOTIC NAILS are coming on for the 4th of July...

This is the evil white out that destroyed my pretty purple flowery manicure...

What I Used To Complete The Look:

Oh and I forgot to put up a picture of the dotting tool and the top coat (Seche) I used to complete the look.. WhOOps
