how to - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

I'm so excited to finally show you these pictures! I got inspired by a beautiful gold necklace you'll see a bit later in the pics. I must admit, I LOVED this manicure on me! But what I loved even more are the pictures and how they came out. Obviously I applied a filter on them but I think it fits!

For this manicure I've used OPI Alpine Snow, A England Camelot, gold foil (from Rio Beauty), black striping tape. I've also used a dotting tool and foil glue. I did not use topcoat to seal the manicure. Topcoat would crinkle the foil which I didn't want.

I've created a tutorial so you can all try this look. If you'll recreate please credit back to me :)

Hello lovelies,

I've done a video tutorial for this manicure back in June so it's long overdue. I'd love to show you more videos but it's such a pain for me to edit them and upload them :-/

Anyway...after doing my first ever stripy manicure using striping tape, I wanted to repeat it but with different colours. I've used following polishes: OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls, China Glaze Grape Pop, Zoya Lotus and Zoya Pinta.

Hope my tutorial will help you to recreate something similar. If you do please credit back to me and share this tutorial so it inspires others :)

EDIT: I forgot to mention that it's really important to use fast drying topcoat after applying two coats of polish. Let it dry for about 10 minutes and then you can apply the striping tape
