For this weeks Mani Monday I had a great idea using OPI Solitaire, Essie Hip-Anema and striping tape. I tried it on my nail wheel and it looked stunning!
Gorgeous right!?! |
I cleaned my nails, put on base coat, painted a layer of Hip-Anema and then the trouble started...
The stupid striping tape just didn't want to do wat I wanted it to do!
It stuck everywhere, except on my nails! It took me a good half an hour to get 6 little pieces on 2 nails I'm ashamed to admit.
But, in the end, I won!!!
Hip-Anema on my nails, check!
Striping tape where I wanted it, check!
I did a little dance of joy to celebrate my victory and grabbed Solitaire. I painted one thin layer, but that wasn't enough. Hip-Anema was showing through to much, it kinda looked like OPI Pussy Galore.

BIG mistake! The tape tried to steal my beautiful Solitaire!
This resulted in blurred edges instead of sharp edges. As a friend of mine put it: "What did you use as a top layer? Whipped cream?" I huffed and I puffed after this insult of my gorgeous nail art, but I have to admit... she was totally right! It does remind me a lot of whipped cream :D
So after all that, I admitted defeat and painted my nails with a different mani, click here to see it.
