I have been seeing
a lot of these triangle styed nails around recently and decided to give it a go
myself.
I decided to use chi chi salon formula -sophisticated
sassy as I haven’t used this polish in
a long time and decided it was time to try it out again and this random sheer nude
colour from models prefer because I haven’t actually used it yet.
Ok so first
I applied OPI chip skip as I always do as it helps my mini last longer then
Orly color care nail strong as by base coat.
i knew I
wanted to use tape to create straight lines for the triangles. Now I don’t have
any nail vinyls but a hack to get around this is to used regular tape and stick
it on the back of your hand a few times so that its less sticky then cut out
the space you want, in this case triangles. I then stuck these to the side of
my desk and continued paining my nails.
I then
applied three cotes of the models prefer polish. I knew that it was going to be
sheer going into this design but it is very sheer, in three coats you can still
quite easily see my nail line (as show my ring finger) but it’s does have a
very strong pink shimmer in it which does kind of distract form it (maybe?). Any
way mixed feelings about this colour.
I then
applied top coat to all my nails and let that dry.
I then put the tape
stencils on my nails and painted the sophisticated sassy polish on top. For my ring
finger I used the cut out section of the triangle instead of the stencil to
create the inverse look.
I
then applied Rimmel London finishing touch as my top coat to all
my nails and I was done.
The
sophisticated sassy needs two coats to be completely even and the same colour
as in the bottle and I only did one coat. That’s why you can see patches where it’s
darker on some nails and I probably should have doe another coat to avoid that.
However it is still an amazing colour with shredded micro glitter in it that
really compliments the pink shimmer in the models prefer polish.
Over
all this is a simple design that is still really pretty. I have been thinking
about doing this design for a couple of weeks now so it’s good to finally have
it on my nails.
