New Nails #7

As much as I loved my previous multi-coloured leopard print nails, they were starting to chip, and it's not an easy design to 'just top-up'. I was seriously considering just re-doing them, but after having a flick through my copy of the WAH! Nails book I decided on a roses design.

What I used: 

Models Own Purple Poppy
Models Own True Blue
Models Own Raspberry Crush
Models Own Nail Art Pen - Black
Rio Professional Nail Art Pen - Green
Models Own 3-in-1 Base Coat / Top Coat / Gloss






  
I'm not overly happy with the design (although the picture looks a lot better than in real life). I think I used too dark a colour on the roses and leaves, and the black outline came out thicker than I wanted so I lost out on a lot of detail.

I will give it another try in the future though, find some lighter colours (maybe it's just the blue I need to change?) I've also ordered Topshops Nail Art Pen in black, I already have it in blue and find the nib to be a lot thinner and more precise than squeezing out the varnish out of the Models Own Nail Art Pen.
