Last Friday's mani & Tonight's new mani

This is my new mani...love love love it. Hopefully i got the right amount of Seche Vite and i don't have shrinkage so far so good it's been 6 hours now and no shrinkage.

Left hand...reaction to Seche Vite Top coat and OPI top coat caused the rhinestone to bleed blue.



Colors used:
Base coat - OPI - Over the Taupe
Base coat - OPI - I'm Fondue of you
Dots - OPI No Room for the blues
Top Coat - Seche Vite


Some things i noticed now...i did my nails with the same diagonal, even though i tried to do them opposite at the time. I still need to do more cleanup, but i did a much better application of polish and didn't flood my cuticles. Orange sticks don't work well for dots...next on ebay purchase - dotting tool.

  1. You can get an "embossing stylus" from the aisle where all the glue/polymer clay etc is at Michaels for something like 2.50. It'll only work for two smaller sizes of dots but I really like mine!

    I'm so glad you found the right amount of Seche! And I saw a difference in your application for sure! I love that blue A LOT. It really pops against your background colours!

    Yay!
