Beauty Tips for Women: Reptile Scales Manicure

Posted on April 3, 2014 by admin

Season 4 of Game of Thrones is about to start and to celebrate I tried my hand at doing a reptile scales style manicure. My goal was to try and make it look dragonish.

I started off with one coat of Daphine Polish – Blue Spruce. I did a gradient using Daphine Polish – The Hessian. The Hessian is a holographic black polish but it is not thick so it required a couple of passes before I got it dark. It certainly wasn’t the best choice to get the effect I wanted but I was committed to the look. I used Mash plate Mash-39 that has a nice scale image and stamped it with Konad black.

I’m on the fence about this manicure. I don’t hate it but I think my polish choice didn’t work for what I wanted.

Beauty Tips for Women: Wet n Wild – Teal Slowly and See and Maybelline – Blue Beats Manicure

Feeling kind of blue? Here is a simple blue manicure. I used Wet n Wild – Teal Slowly and See. I applied two coats. I had no issues with the formula. I love how this color pops and simple is a happy color. For my accent finger I used Maybelline Color Show Street Art – Blue Beats. I topped everything with Color Club Speedy Top Coat.
