Two Tone

Models Own: Nude & Grace Green

I know it's a really simple design but I've never given myself faux tips before or tried the two colour thing. This was my first attempt and I was chuffed with how easy it was. I love these two colours, very Autumn/Winter.
I can't wait for Spring to properly kick in and we experience some heat so I can use all my bright and pastel shades. And I can't wait for Models Own's new 'Smash-Up' crackle polishes to hit their website next month, they look so good! 
I had a little play with another two of my fave Models Own colours after seeing some great posts by Salla. I love all of the designs she does, can't wait to try my hand at a few others.
Please bear in mind this was my first attempt and so it's no where near as good as Salla's perfect designs! Next on my list to buy is a dotting tool so I can get more perfect dots.

  10. Your. Nail. Polish. Collection. Makes. Me. Drool. In. Lust.

    Or just too incoherent to function because you always make me want to spend loads on shipping Models Own polishes over to the States.
