NOTD: Striped Shatter Manicure

I got around to trying a look that I had admired in a few blogs… First striping some colours on the nails and then applying Black Shatter and of course a gorgeous glossy top coat! This was actually my first time using my shatter, I’ve been intimidated to use it for some reason. I'm so glad that I finally took the plunge, the colours peek out just enough to make me LOVE this look!

For the stripes I used Sally Hansen X-Treme Wear Mint Sorbet, The Real Teal and Cobalt Seas (l-r).


Everything applied really nicely. I free-handed the stripes and I was impressed with how well I did! The shatter covered up a few minor slip-ups, but I would have worn the mani without the shatter, too. I just forgot to take a picture before hand, oops :)



Thanks for reading!
