The One With The Lace Nails

I briefly mentioned that I went to a Nail Tech Networking Day recently and wanted to show you what I wore on my nails! I have a whole post about the event coming up this week, but for now, heres my mani!

I wanted to do some awesome nail art for the occasion so I chose to do lace nails! I came across this design on 10 Blank Canvases a while ago and had been meaning to do it ever since. I loved the pattern she painted so I recreated it on my own nails!




I used Essie Black Licorice as my base and painted the lace with white acrylic paint. I topped it off with 2 coats of Poshé to smooth it all out. I've had it on for a whole week! I usually don't make it more than 2 days with one manicure but I loved it so much (and it took forever!) I couldn't bring myself to take it off.  It held up surprisingly well with hardly any chipping up until today which I was also very impressed with :) 

That's all for today!
A domani.

  4. I love this!

    This is actually one of the first/only times when I feel like "can I pay you to do that on mine?!? And I'll actually wear it for as long as possible??"

    Beautious!
