snake nails

 

Do you remember this design I have shown you?

My fingers were itching cuz I really wanted to try something similiar.

Although I know I won't keep the design for long, I feel like switching it up for more cuter and lighter designs now. 

Also my stilettos are empty...I haven't worn coffin for a while now and I think I have never even used coffin size M...so might do smth with it.

This was the sketch from me and my colleague HAHA.

Unfortunately some of the things did not work out.

For example I wanted to use foils with a leopard/snake pattern on the french part but the foil did not transfer at all? also it was just too dark for it to properly show so I went for a blooming gel to emulate a snake skin.

For the ring finger we thought about using two gemstones putting together and sculpting the eyelid and co. around them to have like a gem-eye or something if you understand what I mean?

However all the gems I own are in a shape this could not have worked.

So I decided to freestyle this with other gems now.

This is the result:

The metallic gradient turned out sooo good!!

I wanted to use my non-stick solid for the gems (not the tips tho) so it wouldn't just lay around, hoping that it will stay somehow but it doesn't.

I lost my first gem already tonight that I had to reapply with my other solid.

These two solids are not the same!

I only use the one on the left.

It is absolute bomb, it will stick anything from tip to gems like cement on your fingers.

Sometimes I would love to get rid off it.

Like for example the prior valentine design was stuck so well, I sometimes slipped with my scissor and cut me in my skin.

I even had to drill underneath one gem to finally have a hole I can cut in to get it off.

Trust me, if you want smth to stay...only this one!

I will reorder it now and for the one on the right Idk I might only use it for sculpting..I have to see how this will stay on..the gems quickly fall of already :(

I am soo ready for spring designs tho.

Oh btw I did a vitamin c+head and shoulder mask.

I put it on before taking a bath and what can I say?

It worked...it got rid off all peachy, pink, grey and purple pigments.

The front is very yellowish again but honestly I don't care.

Next time when I wash my hair I might use the purple shampoo again but a whole lot shorter and I will foam it up before putting it on my head and hope for the best lol.
