2011.10.29. Today the two new Orly Polishes, that I hoped would arrive before Halloween, came. It’s Goth and Orange Punch. I had very loosely planned the motives to be a ghost, a bat, a pumpkin and cobwebs, but the latter I forgot in the process.
You don’t have to tell me it looks terrible, and that the two hours I used were in vain, I know that. But I have promised myself to post all mani’s since I started two months ago, regardless how they turn out…
It didn’t help much, that the white and black stripers are of a cheap Korean brand (called OPI – LOL), one of the hairs in the white one was longer, and it shows on the ghost, that looks more like a kite (not that I ever met a ghost in person ;)
Nor that the polish below kind of gets wet again, when I used other polishes on top – how do I avoid that??
I asked my supportive husband if I should take it off, but he likes it, so I’ll wear at few days, I think…
29.10.11. I dag kom de to Orly neglelakker: Goth og
Orange Punch, som jeg havde håbet ville nå at komme inden Halloween. Jeg havde
nogle meget løse planer om i hvert fald at lave et spøgelse, et græskar, en
flagermus og spindelvæv, det sidste glemte jeg dog i farten.
Du behøver ikke fortælle mig, at det ser rædsomt ud, og
at de par timer jeg brugte er spildte, jeg ved det godt. Men jeg har lovet mig
selv at sætte alle mine forsøg på siden jeg startede for to måneder siden,
uanset hvordan de falder ud…
Det hjalp nu heller ikke meget at den hvide og den sorte
striperlak var af en dårlig kvalitet, den hvide havde endda et hår der var
længere end de andre, og det ses, spøgelset ligner mere en drage (ikke at jeg
har mødt et rigtigt spøgelse ;)
Og jeg havde problemer med at lakken blev våd
igen, når jeg malede græskar osv. ovenpå med alm. neglelak, hvordan undgår jeg
det?
Jeg spurgte min kære mand om jeg ikke skulle tage hele
skidtet af igen, men han synes godt om det, så jeg vil beholde dette look i
nogle dage.
Hey,don't be so hard on yourself!This doesn't look that bad at all,yes its a lil messy but so what,its a Halloween nail art,everything goes.Just keep doing it.I started doing nail art maybe a month or two ago,but for years I was convinced that I can not do nail art.Now I do it anyway,and no, its nowhere near perfect:)
SvarSletThanks Mimi, I'm also glad it looks less messy in real life, since my nails are smaller than on the photos LOL
SvarSletBut you are right, it's a learning experience, and I have the next two designs in my mind, so hopefully I get better at it :)
