This mani I did Friday night, while Jack and I were just relaxing and watching one of our favorite movies, Blow. If you have not seen that movie, you MUST!!!!
I started with using Sinful Black on Black on all my nails except my ring finger nails. On them I used a polish I purchased from Etsy called Pretty in Pink, it's a pink and orange duochrome. The seller is DollishPolish. I love her stuff and have a few others to share with you guys :)
Excuse my new friend, the paper cut who has taken up residency on my middle finger!!!
Then I taped off my ring fingers like this
I added Sinful Black on Black over top
Then after that dried, I taped them off again like so...
then once again I used the Black on Black and a coat of Seche Vite
How could I stop there though, especially with my Essie Matte About You top coat just staring at me from the end table!
So, once again, taping my nails off the exact way as I did before, only over the black, and applying the matte top coat to the other nails, here was my finished mani :)
I love this! That Dollish Polish looks great! I love the design you chose, too. Also, Blow is one of my favorite movies too! I definitely agree, it's a must see! :)
ReplyDeleteYah, the matte just really makes this mani badazzz
ReplyDeleteLove your mani! I didn't know about matte colors and top coats until I started following your blog. I had seen the magnetic polish but wasn't about to buy it...until I went through your archives. Now I've got to get some! Thank you Erika, for being such an inspiration to me!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Especially with the matte! How do you make sure that the tape is stuck down but doesnt pull the polish below off?
ReplyDeletehttp://prettypolishednailart.blogspot.com/
Stick the tape to your hand a few times before putting it on your nail.
DeleteThank you! I have attempted tape manicures a few times and always end up with pulled up polish or the tape not coming all the way off the nail. Hopefully my next attempt is not so stressful.
DeleteCool mani! I love Blow, amazing movie!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! Love the hourglass design and matte coat.
ReplyDeletei really love it mattified!
ReplyDelete...ahhh Blow. i know George was the bad guy but i felt sorry for him in the second half of the movie. he seemed like a sweet guy.
Love the look... But the shiny version was cuter :)
ReplyDeleteI agree: shiny version look better but both are cool.
Deletewow I love the simplicity! amazing
ReplyDeleteI love it matte. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteAmazing.

ReplyDeleteI prefer it without matte top coat though.
Love it <3 Before the matte. I like black when it's shiny <3
ReplyDeleteSuch a neat idea. Looks great shiney and matte. Awesome tape job, as always.
ReplyDeleteI love it!! You always have the greatest Tape Manis!!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome! your tape manis are always perfect! I've tried a few times and they never turn out :( not sure what I'm doing wrong..the lines are NEVER as clean as yours!
ReplyDeleteSo nice and simple! I love it!
ReplyDeleteVery cool Erika! And I know a lot of people prefer shiny but I'm Mad About Matte...Lol :)
ReplyDeleteOh you make it look so easy!!!!! I love Johnny Depp and that movie Blow is awesome!!! My fave part is when he's waling through the airport, long hair to the song Black Betty-he is so sexy!
ReplyDeleteCool! I really gotta try this. :)

ReplyDeleteVery cool! I really like the matte/not matte checkers kind of thing.
ReplyDeletePink/Orange Duochrome is one I'm missing in my newly ever-growing stash. Thanks for posting. :)
ReplyDeleteWell done! Great colours!
ReplyDeleteI love it shiny more :)

I am loving matte black at the moment x
ReplyDeleteHelp! Everytime I tape my nail off to copy your design it goes awray by pealing of the polish! :(( any ideas or suggestions why?
ReplyDeleteI have to same problem. Someone commented earlier and said to try sticking the tape to your skin a few times prior to putting it on the nail so that the sickness isn't as strong.
DeleteHey Chloe! LOVE your website!! Awesome tutorials and designs! You are my nail Godess! I am trying to find that pink you are using in here because it's gorgeous!!! Where did you get the pretty in pink?!? Can't find it!! :((

Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan, and you recently got my hooked on doing my own mani's.
Quick question for you...what brand of tape do you use? I use oldschool "Scotch Magic Tape" but it likes to bubble at the edges so I don't get a clean line. Let me know what you use or if you have any recommendations to prevent this from happening!!
-Mel

Totally just had a brilliant idea looking at this mani. For a "back to school" mani you could do black polish with the matte about you top coat then with one of those Sally Hansen nail art pens write something cutesy so it would look like a chalk board!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cute idea!!!!
DeleteI love this!!! You always do the best tape manis!!
ReplyDeleteLove this (mm) !!!!

AMAZING ! So perfect manicure :)
ReplyDeleteGreat design and technique....awesome color combination.
ReplyDeleteSorry that in Polish I write. Bardzo podobają mi się Twoje projekty, szczególnie, że są one tak dobrze dopasowane do tematu, który sobie narzucasz :) zużywasz tak dużo lakieru, że pewnie wycena przedsiębiorstwa niejednego opiera się na Twoich wydatkach. Pozdrawiam,
ReplyDeleteSonia
