Truly Tiker

I'm going out for some much needed drum & bass tonight, so of course I need an absolutely out there mani!


I decided to grab my Elixir Lacquers With a K, and Kiss Black.  I feel like I haven't really done a scotch tape mani for a while now, I broke out the tape too!! 


I used two coats of With a K, covered with one coat of SV, since I'm using tape.  I cut even strips and striped them over my nails, then applied one coat of Black, and removed the tape immediately.  I did this on each nail, and finished it all off with a coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast.


I love With a K, and I love tiger stripes, so Tiker was born!!  I really love the how With a K reacts to the black.  It makes it stand out and pop even more!!!

I hope you enjoy it!  Happy Painting!!!

  11. I love this mani so much! I adore hot pink and animal print, so this has me squeeing all over the place! I've never done a mani with tape -- it scares me what a mess I'll make, but this mani has inspired me to try!

  13. Wait, wait... how did you do these!? You taped down the glitter first, then applied the black? I'm so confused but I really want to do this on my own nails. Sooo want to! <333
