This week I got my inspiration from another Instagram nail account called _miriilein. For this manicure you will need a red nail color, a white nail color, a gold nail color, some striping tape, some aluminum foil, a tiny dotting tool and tweezers.
I started with a base coat of OPI nail envy maintenance. I then did two coats of L.A. Colors GEL in Fierce. I then used a fast drying top coat on my middle and ring fingernails. I placed two pieces of striping tape, so that they would form an x on the middle of the nail. I then placed more pieces of striping tape so that they come down and out from the first two pieces of tape. I then painted over the tape in OPI Alpine Snow, except for the very bottom and top areas that formed a small triangle, which I painted in with a very small dotting tool and Orly Luxe. I then immediately removed the striping tape with tweezers. I then finished with a fast drying top coat of Poshe.

This was FUN! It was a little complicated placing the tape and painting the smaller areas, but other than that, pretty easy. I really like this gel nail polish. SO SHINY. I hope you liked this mani and I will see you next time!
