Technique I am talking about is a version of the dry marble. In this technique you place the lines of the polish on the mat or any other surface you use, mix the colors slightly then pick them up with the flat brush and then almost dip them onto wet polish on the nail.
My problem may be that I work up the polish too much before picking it up with the brush. That is the theory that I may have to go deeper into, but this technique I use so seldom, that there is too big of the time lapse in between for me to figure out where is my problem.
Secondly, I always use the regular polish for this, even though every time I see the tutorial in my feed, this technique is used for the gel polishes. Again, that is something to consider here.
Now, you may see some familiar names when it comes to the nail polishes used.
I used A Enland - Maxim, and two cremes are by Color Club Nail Lacquer - Feathered Hair Out To There (light pink) and All That Razz (neon pink). I went through the pink period recently, and all of those colors just appeal to me. I wore straight pink manicures for weeks, and I ended up with quite a few of them for my feed...
To tone down the pink, I really love the addition of the Maxim - in my humble opinion it makes this manicure grown up looking. It is also such an unique color, and you would understand if you seen it in person.
Despite all the shortcomings and over criticism I tend to serve myself, I loved this manicure, and I ended wearing this for a week. That is eternity in my little world.
You know that I love some bling from time to time, so I added some clear rhinestones for that 'extra' feeling. I am all about extra! LOL!
We had some really good run when it comes to weather, and I hope that trend will continue. We surely due for some early spring after several years of prolonged winter.
Only thing that need to be improved is the air quality that is quite low at the moment due to the dust particles in the air. For once I am grateful for the face masks, as they are filtering some of the dust too, even though my eyes feel like they are on fire!
have yourself an amazing day.
Cheers!
