31 Day Challenge 2015: Fishtail

Hello lovelies!

I have a quick post for you guys because you all know, it's late and I have class! Whoops...

Onto the nails!

The first time I attempted the fish tail braid design, I said I'd never do it again. How did attempt number two go? Check under the cut to find out (;

Here's what I used:


I'm never doing one of these again!....okay, that really only means until it comes up in another challenge but still. This design is the biggest pain! I don't know how you people do it, I can't that long for each little swipe of polish to dry.

These nails started with two coats of Lotus Begin. Now, I'm just going to link you to Lucy's Stash's tutorial because she manages to make this design look like a piece of cake. I then added the rhinestones (previously reviewed here) and added a layer of Glossy Glam.

I think it's been pretty obvious that I'm not fond of these nails...I will say that I like these colors together though. Purple is always good with me. Have you guys ever tried this design before? What are your thoughts on it?


Thanks for reading guys!
