Let's Wash Our Eyes From Valentine's!

... with a non-Valentine's mani, today ;)
Seeing tomorrow is THE day and you'll probably be seeing a lot of those, let's take a breather from it all with some geometry, shall we? 

Let's start with my right hand nails! I posted these on Instagram this morning:






Considering I did these lines with my (almost good-for-nothing) left hand, I'd say they came out superb ;)



And as for my left hand nails, I thought it was high time I did another tape mani and this is what I came up with:





I love the colours on these sooooo much!
And they're such a clean palette from all the hearts and fluffy drawings and all :)





I started by painting all my nails two coats of Dermacélsia No.74.





I let it dry for a good 30minutes (watch a series episode, read a book or read some blog posts, while you wait ;)) and applied tape to a quarter of my nails and divided the bottom part in half.
On one side I applied Flormar P062, a lovely glittery pencil black.





I let the black dry for another 20/25minutes and carefully applied this lilac/lavender My Label No.235.
I'm loving this colour sooooooo, so much! Can't wait to wear it in a full mani, all by itself :)





I had to wait another 30/40minutes for all the previous coats to dry - that's the key to a good, clean tape mani: patience.
And I lastly applied Coral Matt Effect No.403.





Some topcoat on for some shine and smoothness and voilà!
Happy geometrical nails to clear your eyes from all the lovey-dovey stuff ;)


Hope you have a lovely evening tonight and I'll be seeing you real soon ;)

Hugs & Kissies,
