If you follow my blog you have probably seen this before, I did the same half moon variation back in October 2011 with Illamasqua Purity, just after Theatre of The Nameless was released and all because the shape of the half moon reminded me of theatre curtains! Weird I know! Well this shape also reminds me of a heart so I've had this mani in mind for quite some time and was waiting for Valentine's to do it.
I used Barry M Black over Jessica Samba Parade (my only Jessica polish) as a base colour. I've had this polish for so long that the formula has gone a bit goopy and it was hard to manage, however it's a good quality polish and they have very interesting colours. The only downside is the price, they retail at about £9.45.
I just love the contrast between such a delicate pink and shiny black! Looks amazing :D
ReplyDeleteThanks Bia :)

ReplyDeleteDid you use tape to create the shapes? And if so, how did you get them so beautifully semetrical like that?
ReplyDeleteHi! Yes I used tape! It's a precut tape that already comes in that pointy shape! I bought mine on eBay.
