Hello! The weather is so hot and warm these past few days, that I've been getting a bit lazy not doing much. I hope it cools down soon. Let's see the manicure I have for the Oh Mon Dieu! It’s the Rather Awesome 31 Day Challenge.
For day 25, the theme is inspired by a movie. One of my favorite Disney movie growing up has to be Finding Nemo. I first saw it in one of my classes in high school and I actually cried during some parts of it. After watching it then, I've been a huge fan ever since. I'm super excited that there's going to be a sequel in Finding Dori!
For my base color, I used Jessica Tangerine Dreamz. Taking some striping tape, I tapped off my nails similar to the stripes you find on a cloud fish which is the kind of fish Nemo is. Using Sally Hansen White On, I painted inside of the of the area I taped off. I quickly peeled the tape off while the polish was still wet. Then with black acrylic paint, I used a stripper nail art brush to outline the white stripes. Finished it off with a coat of my Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.
This didn't turn out exactly how I pictured it but I gave it my best effort. I was really struggling with getting the black lines straight and even but sadly, some were much thicker than others. The white polish I used was pretty getting thick too since I'm halfway done with the bottle which made it hard to peel the tape off nicely. Oh well, I guess I better practice some more then. What do you think of my Finding Nemo inspired nails?
