Recycle Mani Monday: Chevron Tips

Hey Y'all!
Sorry this post is late!
It's Recycle Mani Monday again!
Today I did some more chevron tips.


Here's How:

Regular tape is gonna be the tool for this one. 

I take the corner of the piece of tape and line it up on my nail with my previous 'v' shape design. 

Make sure to push the tape down so no polish will get under it. 

Then I painted the remainder of my nail with a nude polish. I used Zoya "Charlott." 

Immediately remove the tape before the polish dries. 


Use a small brush with acetone to cleanup any excess polish on your skin.

Finish it off with your favorite top coat. I use Salon Perfect.

And that's it!




These weren't my favorite nails ever but they were ok Gol.

Neutral Chevron

Hey Y'all! 
I have a neutral chevron today! 
I did this design about 2 years ago and just saw the picture again and really wanted to recreate it so I did! Unfortunately it's not the same polishes as I didn't write them down back then, but it's pretty close.
Here's How:
I started with a white base of Salon Perfect "Sugar Cube."

I used the small chevron vinyls from http://www.nailvinyls.com

Usin my tweezers I peeled up 4 stickers

and place them onto my nails. I completely placed my 2nd one wrong somehow I wasn't payin attention.

and use your second color to paint over the whole nail. I used Pop-arrazi "Mauvie Night."

Then immediately pull up the vinyls with your tweezers. You do not want to let the polish dry before you peel them off.

and there's the design. you can see that second was wrong it looks off gol.

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

and that's it! 
Here's the video:




I hope y'all enjoyed this one! It wasn't as good as my first one, mostly because I wanted the same colors as before but couldn't figure it out. But I still like em.
