yet another zebra mani!

Posted by Unknown on Sunday, April 10, 2011

I think I fall back on zebra stamps a bit too much, but I can't help it! I just love the look.
I originally wanted to do this design with the Bundle Monster zebra image because I think it is a bit more zebra-like, but my nails are too long for that image right now. Shocking!
This is the longest my nails have ever been.

For this mani (that I did last night instead of studying...) I used Color Club Wild Orchid as a base color, and stamped with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Brisk Blue, from Konad m57.


Wild Orchid is gorgeous. I hadn't tried it until last night.
It is from the Every Shade of Indulgence set from the Untamed Luxury collection.
I'm so happy I decided to use it on a whim last night, because it really is awesome. One of my new faves!
Here's a picture of it before the stamping.


It is similar in color to China Glaze's Recycle, but with really pretty shimmer!


Love!

Last night I decided to try wrapping my tips with polish as I know many people do and swear by.


But I hated it!! I couldn't stand the feeling of it for some reason. So I took it off my tips with a qtip! Haha.
I don't find it very noticeable if I don't wrap my tips so I don't think I'm going to try this again unless I think a polish or mani absolutely needs it.

For some reason, my nails don't look as long in the pictures as they seem in person.
I think I'm going to have to cut them down soon.


In other news, does anyone have a bottle of Maybelline Goody Plum Drop they want to swap me? I've fallen in love! Unfortunately I fell in love a year too late. Hahaha.
