Today's post is short and sweet...
Linking up to show off my cool nails for this week...
Today's nails are brought to you by the letter's Y for YELLOW
and P for Pain the arse! LOL
Here's the PINspiration for the look:
And here's how they turned out.
The color I used is called "Did I Dye It Too Blonde" by Spoiled...
I used french manicure tape to achieve this look, plus a paintbrush with acetone nail polish to clean up the edge.
But... I had to put about 4 coats of the yellow to get the color to show up.
And IRL it does NOT look as neon as the above pic or the color in the bottle.
I didn't use "nude" nail polish, just clear to finish it off... which i needed about 2 coats of that.
So these puppies took a WHILE to dry (note to self: don't start a manicure like this at 10:30 at night)
All in all, i'll keep them on. And if i try them next time, i think i'll try a coat of white first and then paint the neon yellow over that and see how it turns out.
Youre brave. I dare not attempt to do that! Its look good though!! :)
ReplyDeleteOoh cute polish!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT!!! My nails look like shit after this weekend, so I need to redo them. I just haven't been doing anything crazy since I don't have time...and I definitely don't have time for a french manicure! lol
ReplyDeleteLOVE!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Neons are difficult to build up so not sure how the Pin-spiration person got their nails to look like that. They need to share their secrets! hehe
