Lazy 15: Tape Mani

Hey everyone, today marks day one of the Lazy 15 Challenge! It's not too late to join if you'd like, just gotta do a quick mani today then you can pick up after the weekend with the rest of the challenge ;) *nudge nudge*


So this is actually my first ever tape mani... or successful tape mani? I think I maybe tried once before unsuccessfully and I'll admit, I wasn't really thrilled to try this because I'm not the most patient person alive and I was worried I'd try too soon and take my base coat off. Anyway, I knew holo always makes it better, so I started with Jade Delirio Rosa, a light-medium pink linear holo:


Then I added striping tape I recently got from Born Pretty Store in random laser patterns to get this look:


Super duper holo... mmmmmm!

With flash to show off the holo ;)

Finally, here it is in low light so you can see the actual laser mani itself.


There you have it! I hope you enjoyed! Check out the rest of the ladies doing the challenge with me :)



xoxo,
Amanda

Holooooo! I've seen this done w/ holo and black but never with holo and white. I wonder how it'd come out.

Oh gosh I love this so much! Absolutely love the Jade nail polishes where but I can't seem to find them anywhere where can you get them??? lol! Your lines are really crisp and your mani is fantastic!

Nice! I'd say this is a success! I've failed at doing any sort of tape mani every time I've tried...I haven't tried striping tape though, maybe one day it'll work out.

Amanda, Nail Polish Enthusiast said...

I usually don't try because I'm so impatient and get nervous the tape will lift up my base... but this was really easy! I recommend the striping tape!
