Yes, those are my nails. They were getting a bit to long again and instead of lopping them off I decided to try the square style that appears to be all the rage with nail artists....these nails are not for me. Not only do they look very strange without polish but there's just something about them that makes me go "eurgh". On me anyway. I love how they look on others but this isn't my style. I filed them back into some sort of curved oval shape but now my nails are little too short because of it.
Anywho, the prompt for Clairestelle8's March challenge on the 12th was Mandalas and I love doing mandala nails. In fact, this nail plate was part of my first nail plate order. I was also thinking about this shade as well and how I hadn't used it in a while. It's called Lemon Sugar by Avon and it's my absolute favourite nail polish shade; I just think it's perfect and I always get asked about it when I'm wearing it.
How I did it:-
I started off with 1 layer off Blanc then sponged on four layers of Blanc and Lemon Sugar. After a layer of top coat and I then stamped on some mandala designs in #4 and followed it up with Pink Planet on top. An easy peasy one today!
