Recycle Mani Monday: Black French Tip

Hey Y'all!
It's Recycle Mani Monday! Time to jazz up those weekend mani's!
Here's Mine:


Here's What I Added:
I started with my previous stamp mani.

Then with an unnamed black polish I painted a black stripe at an angle on the tip of the nail. We're goin to create a V shaped french tip. 

Then I repeated that on the other side so the two met at the point creatin the V. And that's it! Super Simple!

Use Your favorite top coat to seal it all in. I use Salon Perfect. 

All Done! 
Here's the video:

Recycle Mani Monday: Grunge

Hey Y'all!
I have a fun new series I'm startin today, called "Recycle Mani Monday!"
Basically every Monday I'm goin to recycle my weekend manicure instead of startin over with a whole new design. So by recycle I mean I'm just goin to add onto my previous mani to create a new one. I thought it would be really fun to make it a new series for my youtube and instagram! 
So speakin of that, I'm makin it a hash tag as well! 
If you'd like to join in here's all you have to do:
Post your recycled mani to instagram every Monday
And hashtag it #RecycleManiMonday
Then every Tuesday I will feature some of my favorites from the hashtag! 

Here's my recycle for this week!


I went with a grunge graffiti look.


Here's How:
I started with my previous mani from Sunday. 

Then I took black acrylic paint and dabbed it onto a scrunched up piece of saran wrap. I dabbed some of the paint onto a paper towel to remove excess amounts.

Next just sponge it onto your nail.

This is how mine looked after the black. 

Then I recycled my saran wrap by turnin it inside out, so the black was inside now and I had a clean surface on the outside.

And I repeated the spongin with a blue acrylic paint.

I used my small brush and acetone to clean up any excess paint on the skin.

Use your favorite top coat to seal it all in. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it! You have a brand new recycled mani in a matter of minutes!
Here's the video:





I hope y'all enjoyed this and that you'll participate for next week's Recycle Mani Monday!
