Neon Stripe Nails

Today I wanted something colourful and bright, and as I'm a huge fan of stripes, I went for that. I started with a base of Models Own Coconut Cream, 2 coats. I am using Coconut Cream all the time recently! It's such a good base for things.

I then used striping tape to make fairly irregular stripes, and painted them using a bunch of bright polishes. I used Models Own Pukka Purple, Bubblegum and Bikini, Barry M Blood Orange and Blue Grape,China Glaze Turned up Turquoise, and a mini OPI orange whose name I can't remember.

I was pretty pleased with how these came out!

I don't know why I don't do stripes on my nails more often.

The stripes might not be perfect, but they are cheerful, and they remind me of my living room rug, which I love. There are lots of stripy things in my house!
Fergus and Mickey!

  2. This looks amazing! It reminds me of sweeties and rock too :-) Very bright and bold too!

    Oh what cute cats! They look like they are having a good time. Though the one on the right looks like it's been up to no good, it has a guilty face hehe ;-) That is usually the expression mine have when they've been naughty!!

    1. Thank you!

      A guilty face? My Fergie? He's a darlin! He was probably sulking because Mickey stole his toy.

  3. Deckchairs! And Fergie definitely has a guilty look, he's been rolling in something you font want to know about.
