Thanks!! My partner said the sweater nail looks like a ribbed dildo 😠it was originally jelly polish and it looked like jello before I put the matte top coat on.
Lol I do the first layer of the lines and then cure it, add another layer, and repeat until it's built up enough to have definition. Then I lightly file it to make the height even before adding a thin layer of hard gel and finally a thin layer of matte top coat to finish!
This sets a bit complicated since my last set was black, so when I filed it down, I still had a few shadows from the last polish. Because of that, I used a solid opaque nude as a base on all of my fingers before using the actual colored polishes I wanted.
The pinks are jelly GAOY nudes
The glitter nails are actually a mix of metallic powder with rose gold glitter
The thumb is Veronni pink metallic, though that one separates and gets streaky if I don't mix it well before use!
I use Beatles for the base and top coats along with a hard gel overlay for extra strength 😊

Ouh cute!! I never had the patience to do those knitted texture nails but I love em, especially as a single accent nail.

I was gonna say prop testicles or truck nuts, but that works too.
