Neon & Gray Nails ~ Outlined Manicure


You can’t win em all, right? I love the colors. I love the idea {inspired by this mani}… I even tried out my new nail art toolsbut oh it turned out horrible. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t follow the line of the inner nail, it was more that I couldn’t keep the neon yellow off of my skin. So a template OVER wouldn’t work but rather a template around maybe? I think the key is to paint the neon first… THEN, using some template that covers the edges only, paint the gray over the neon. OR possibly by using a nail polish paint pen.

Needless to say, it’s gotten better over the past few days and I’m still wearing it as I type this. I can’t say I hate it, but it’s not my best work, lol.
