Herbie The Love Bug Inspired

Posted on 04:00 by Unknown
Anybody else love these movies as a kid? I loved watching the ones from the 60s, I wasn't as big a fan of the Lindsay Lohan versions.
These nails were inspired by his racing stripes and number.

 

 


Tutorial:
I used 3 coats of Lime Crime Milky Ways and then I topped it with a coat of Seche Vite to speed things along. I waited about 10 minutes before applying the striping tape. I started along the middle of my nail and applied one piece. Then a second piece touching along the side of the first piece. Place the next piece with enough spacing to accommodate another imaginary piece of tape between them. And repeat again with skipping another imaginary space.
Then I used a small nail art brush to apply Sally Hansen Insta Dri Rapid Red & Sinful Colors Rainstorm. 
Then I removed all of the strips of tape EXCEPT for the very first strip. That one I trimmed with some cuticle nippers to the edges of my nail. Top with Seche Vite topcoat.
 Voila!
