Hi! Recently I attempted a Lightning Bolt French manicure using the amazing tutorial from Nailside. All you need is tape and two nail polishes.
For this manicure, I used my trusty Wet 'n' Wild Black Creme and Zoya Trixie.
The tutorial by Nailside is great. It explains every step in detail. This design was very easy to complete in my opinion. Using tape as opposed to freehand is much quicker and allows for less mistakes.
French tip designs like this are especially useful in freshening up old manicures. For this mani, I had the black already on and tired of it. It even covers up tipwear and slight chipping on your nails.
All photos are inside, no flash, and with artificial lighting.
For my first try on one of these Lightning Bolt manicures I'm very pleased with the result. This is definitely a design I will wear again. Thanks to Nailside for the tutorial and inspiration of this manicure!
I hope to have another post up this weekend and I'm working on getting together scheduled posts for Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday as I'll be away without access to the internet.
Thanks for stopping by! Have you ever tried this or have plans to try it in the future? Hope your week went well!
On To The Next Polish,
Katie
