Cross-hatch Nail Art Using Striper

-

Hello! What's goin' on guys?  I broke my new nail art striper again and did some more nail art, because, well, it's a nail art striper! It's really easy to let my nail art juices flow when I brake out the striper!


I like to call these 'cross-hatch' nails. They are really easy to do, just use a nail striper to create overlapping lines until half of the space of your nail bed has been filled in. The thing about this striper is that the brush drips real bad and the formula is pretty thick. I think that this looks pretty cool on a bare nail, and you time waiting for a base colour to dry, so these are perfect if you need to get something on your nails really quick. If you have trouble getting old, excess nail polish off of your nail beds, just take a q-tip and dip it in acetone. Then, use the q-tip to rub the excess polish off of your nails.


Nail stripers sure are fun, right guys? I reckon you can do lots of variations on a cross hatch design, maybe I'll do a little experimenting soon, and share some more cross hatches with you soon. What do you think? Let me know in the comments 'kay?
May Your nails be good

Hi again everybody! I am here today with the second part of my Sinful Colours New Shades 2019 collection review which is a comparison post! In this post, I will be doing comparisons for each nail  polish in the collection as well as including some extra swatch photos for each polish! Y'know what, I have never done a full post dedicated to comparisons before so I am excited! It was really interesting to see which polishes had more dupes and which polishes were hard to find dupes for, some were a lot harder to find dupes for than I was expecting. Oh! And in case you missed the swatch and review of this collection, you can read that post here . Now, It's time to compare some polishes! For this post we will be going in the same order of polishes as the swatch and review, y'know, just to make it easy to follow. Today we are starting with the first polish that I swatched and reviewed in the collection; Spring Fling. As you can see, this is a very pale purple colour. S...

Hello, hello! Welcome to another swatch and review! Guys, guys, guess what? This is the very first polish from OPI that I have swatched and reviewed! Innit that exciting? This is a new polish that I picked up about two weeks ago as apart of a large haul, and it's been sitting on my 'Nail polish I need to swatch or do nail art with' rack ever since. I wanted to swatch this for you guys so badly, so I'll hop right into the review now! This polish is called 'Chocolate Moose'. Yum! I'm down for some chocolate moose! Err, anyway,back to the polish. This is a very light chocolate brown colour. The formula is fantastic and such a pleasure to apply. It's also super opaque, very close to being a one-coater, and I think that you could definitely get away with one thick coat. Shown is two coats. I noticed that as I was applying the polish that it seemed very very shiny, but as it dries somewhat less shiny than it applies. One of the things that I rea...
