PURPLE OPI TEXTURED TAPE TIPS

Hey guys, how are you all doing? The weekend goes by so quickly :( 

Remember this mani here, well I decided I wanted to try it out again but with different colours so I decided to use OPI Vesper and Funky Dunkey. 

I started off with two coats of Funky Dunkey and then when that was dry I used two pieces of Striping tape to make the criss cross tips and then applied Vesper and that was it. I didn't apply topcoat because I wanted the texture to show through which is a nice contrast :)

I love the contrast in texture and Vesper is so pretty at one coat because you can see the black glitter in a purple base, when you use 2 or more coats it just looks very dark and you can see tiny hints of black glitter at the edges of the nail, so I prefer to use it this way :)

OPI DON'T TALK BACH TO ME & TEXTURED TAPED TIPS

So I actually did these nails when I got back from my holiday to the south coast! I picked up both OPI The mini Oz collection and OPI Don't Talk Bach To Me (which was on sale) on the ferry to France. 

 I didn't paint my nails on holiday because to be honest our cottage was horrible, like the worst cottage we've ever stayed in (and we've stayed in plenty), and it was small so I didn't want to stink the place out with  nail polish, also we went exploring every day and ended up getting back quite late every night and after that we'd all be cream crackered! 

Anywho so when I got back home I sat and stared at my new polishes and waited for inspiration to strike and well I ended up with this ! 

This is 2 coats of OPI Don't Talk Bach To Me, I then used striping tape at the tips and OPI What Wizardry is This? I was too impatient to let me contrast between the textured polish and the regular polish show through so I applied a nice thick layer of topcoat. 

As you can see I was maybe a little too impatient and knocked my pinky!
