Taped - My first taped mani! Zig Zags

Thanks to the lovely Chloe's Nails, Ive had this idea waiting for a while. 
Ive been reluctant to try tape but got ballzy the other night.
Turned out totally awesome! I love the colors I chose.
But after close inspection, I realized that I messed the zags up!
I followed her tutorial but apparently I got way ahead of myself, thinking, "Oh easy! I got this!"

Yea well, needless to say, I ended up with the shimmer color all in the middle sections with the purple and black alternating the tips and beds. But ya know what, I bet you wouldnt have noticed if I hadnt pointed it out, right?
Im always my own worst critic!
But I did say I still loved how it turned out so Im not totally bad :-p







My base purple is ORLY Purple Velvet, shimmer is Borghese Stellar Notte (thanks Jess for the heads up to try it again!) and black is my favorite Wet N Wild Black (such thick coverage for only $.99, can't beat that!)

  1. Cool! I like tape manis, but can't seem to get them right. I guess I'm more of a free hand kinda girl

  3. This is an awesome first tape mani! My first time was messy and not nearly as complex as this one! I love the colors, that purple is especially nice with the black & dark shimmer!
