Introduction
Good day darlings. Today I again combine #clairestelle8challenge and #mcarochallenge. It was not easy to come up with Gothic Movember nail art util I noticed this skull with mustache on BM 413. In order to make this design really interesting I decided for the first time to use foil on top of the stamping and I chose matte black background for better contrast. Stamping was done with White Konad polish and right after stamping image on the nail I pressed holographic foil on top of it. The result was really mesmerizing, and hopefully you can see it on photos. In fact, I'm super happy that I tried foils. However, there is one problem about using them, I tried to apply several different top coats, but they all reduce holographic shine, so all pictures are shown without any top. Unfortunately, without top coat holo foil got scratched away after one day of wear, so I'm not sure yet how to make this beauty last long. And there is a video tutorial at the end of this post.
