Twinsie Tuesday - Interlocking Design + Untriedicure #10


Before we get into my mani for today, I have to note that I have found my new favorite topcoat pairing!

I love Seche Vite, but I hate how it shrinks. Since I'm a broken record, always complaining about it, I was gifted HK Girl to try, but I've found HK Girl is a little too thin for me. It takes three coats to equal the coverage and thickness I'd get with one coat of Seche. So to eliminate the shrinking, I've been topping my manis first with HK Girl, then one or two coats of Seche depending on what I need. This combo has been working out perfectly for me! They both dry fast and shiny, and last nice and solid, for the duration of my manicure.


I started my nails for today with Sally Hansen White On, then added stripes of Sally Hansen Peach Babe, and Julep Linden. Once I did this, though, I absolutely loved it, even though it was so clean and simple! So I had to keep that mani for a day before adding to it to create my interlocking design.



Adding Julep Braiden to the mix, I went with the interlocking design on my index finger, and different stripes and dot patterns on my other nails.







I ended up absolutely loving this mani! The colors are just all so perfect together, for some reason!
