I have this new obssesion with wearing polish only on the tips of my nails ever since I FINALLY got my stains out. I have been wearing nothing but naked nails and colored tips for like a week and a half now. I absolutely love how it looks for some reason. I also love applying seche vite over my bare nails. For some odd reason it makes me feel cool.
Today I decided to wear a glitter over my naked nails before painting the tips and I think it looks pretty neat.
This is my beloved Orly Royal Navy and a base coat of China Glaze fairy dust. Before Royal navy came out there was only ONE blue that could come this close to my heart and that was Nfu-oh 557, Royal navy and 557 have the same exact base color except the nfu-oh is a jelly and lacks the AWESOME turquoise shimmer. The Nfu-oh is still my favorite polish of all time though. Please excuse my STAINED ring finger. If you would like to know it was China Glaze paper chasing that stained my nail like that. I had it on for about an hour while I was comparing greens... Oh yeah, that is my seche vite in that extreme wear bottle. I always keep it in that type of bottle because I love the brush, you should try it.
It feels so odd to have any part of my nail exposed because I'm so used to hiding my stains. Wearing them naked is so addicting! I can't get myself to paint my whole nail anymore now that I have gone naked and felt the breeze on mah fingas! FYI My favorite so far has been black tips. If you are wondering how I got my stains out I tried everything man! Finally the solution was 10 denture whitening tablets in about 1/2 cup of warm water and soaking my nails in it for over an hour.
Love, MM

I like this - with the colour just on the tips { I didn't notice the staining till you pointed it out.}
ReplyDeleteAlso I think it is very nice that you are modeling those obscure Misa's. So far the first batch are lovely & I would love to see that sheer pink colour layered over something - I'll bet it's fabulous.
the question of natural nail whitening comes up alot - I'll pass that along ===== 10 denture whitening in warm h2o for 1 hour.....
Love it!! This is one of my favorite ways to wear polish, too :) I love neon tips, or metallic tips like with Orly Luxe. And CG Fairy Dust makes everything better! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOooh love the glitter and blue tips!
ReplyDeleteOooooh very pretty. I love the glitter that you used on the nails.
ReplyDeleteI have to try the tablet thing, my nails are so stained. My thumb nail is so stained it looks like I soaked it in pee.
ReplyDelete*sigh*
So pretty! I looked at Royal Navy last week and PUT IT BACK. WHAT was I thinking?! LOL I like mine like that, but the lengths are a little uneven right now and I don't feel like fighting it. My fave has been ChG Spontaneous - a pretty purple creme.
ReplyDeleteSeveral times I've done my tips in red. I would get comments like "did you just kill someone?" Yes I did. The body's in the trunk of my car. That's what you smell.
ReplyDeleteomg THANK you for a stain solution! i tried denture tabs, but just one at a time. ::skips off to try your way::
ReplyDeleteThe simple coloured french looks really effective and modern. :D
