NOTD: Cover up, cover up and some more cover up =)

Posted by on Labels: , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

OK, I hate this mani. But for some strange reason, I like it too. And I'm too tired for removing my nail polish for the 3rd time today, so it stays.
I started off with OPI Bubble Bath. I have to say I'm not too impressed with OPI. The brush is kinda too wide, I'm not used to it. It causes me to make mistakes. The formula is nice, but not that I cry tears of joy. (I was kinda expecting that!) I can live with it, though. Anyway, after 4 coats of Bubble Bath, I nicked my mani. Then I decided to do a konadicure I saw on the Konad page:


I altered the spots a bit, to cover my mistakes. Then I nicked the mani again. And I placed black fishnet design diagonally on the tips. Like randomly. Interesting. Then I applied top coat, which tinted Bubble Bath because of the black tips. Arrrgh! But I wasn't ready to give up, so I covered the tinted spots with China Glaze Glam. 5 coats of top coat, 4 coats of OPI, 2 coats of Glam and a coat of ridge filler have been used for this mess! Altogether it makes 12 coats. I don't wanna go through the removal of this!
Pictures:



What do you think? I don't like it very much, but from a distance it looks bearable to my eyes =)

    For admitting to messing up so many times, I'm impressed! I really like the unexpected placement of all the elements in your nail design! Also, the red spots and white flowers look much better where you put them than their location in the Konad Nail photo! Glad you posted this!

    Thank you Polish Hoarder and gildedangel! PH, you really think so? I was thinking maybe I should have kept the dots at the tips only... I'm glad you liked it!

    maybe because they remind you of blood drops or a generally bad nail accident =)

    Thank you Brooke =) I first thought about placing them on the tips, but I guess it somehow bothered me, too... Maybe I thought of bloody nail tips, too! =D

    I love that black fishnet. Very sexy. Beside, I thought that "Glam" sucked the first time I saw it (complete manicure). In fact it's cool used like that in small doses! I REALLY have to kick my ass and make more manicures! I'm so lazy!

  14. TrincessDecember 6, 2009 at 2:46 AM

    Thank you, nathalie =) Glam is really cool, way better than Doll House, which is HUGE =) Glam is very pretty, I love the color and the shininess, it reminds me of a mermaid for some reason =)

    you're being a little hard on yourself, I think it looks pretty good actually!

    I'm impressed by your perseverance, I would have removed everything after the second nick, I have no patience!

    In the end it looks very original and even arty :)

    thanks everyone =)
    chocaddict, I usually remove everything after the first nick, but it would be just too painful to remove all the coats this time. I was kinda stubborn to make this work =)
