N.A.I.L Linkup: June - Matte

Hello lovelies!

I'm back with my N.A.I.L Linkup post for you all day! This will be the last of these posts for a bit since next month is the Oh Mon Dieu 2 Challenge! It sounds like it's going to be an awesome challenge and I'm going to try to keep up with it. You can expect a lot of posts from me in July. Shush, you know you'll love it!

Anyhoo, onto the nails!

I think I figured out how to do something cool and I like it! (;

Here's what I used:

I don't use matte top coat that often and yet this bottle is almost empty. I have no idea when that happened...

So, these nails started with 2 coats of Black On Black. I then got this really cool idea to try dripping matte top coat into water to do a water spotted manicure and it worked! Surprisingly, the top coat spreads pretty well. It's kind of hard to see what design you're going to get when you put your finger in since, ya know, the top coat isn't colored but I think it makes it fun!

I have a feeling that I'm going to get mixed reactions on these nails but I really like them! I would definitely do this again and try putting a design over it but this was my first time trying this out. Next up is trying to watermarble with matte top coat! (;

  4. Great idea! I think you need to get a back-up matte top coat though *winks*
