Rainbow nails!!

This post is going to be super quick but if I don't share these I might very well explode.
So, there was a challenge in one of the Facebook groups I'm in for rainbow nails...

So I did them and I used:
Julep:
  • Majorie
  • Lexxie
  • Nellie
  • Eden
  • Fiona

Zoya:
  • Elisa
  • Robin
Butter London - Cotton Buds
Sinful Colors- Black on Black
Pretty & Polished Matte Topcoat

First, I painted all of my nails white with Cotton Buds.
Then, like a day later (I'm really slow), I painted rainbow stripes on top of them with a striper brush.
The greatest part about these nails, is that it doesn't matter how bad you are at drawing stripes because you're not even going to see them for long. :D I suck at stripes.

THEN once the rainbows are COMPLETELY DRY (SUPER IMPORTANT) carefully apply striping tape in the opposite diagonal direction of the rainbow lines. Paint your whole nail black and slowly peel the tape off while they're still wet. 
I then painted them with a matte topcoat.... just because I like matte and ended up with THIS AWESOMENESS!

I wish I could have these nails always.
