I decided to do one of my older designs again, one that I did in pink over a year ago. I copied this design from IndigoNova1 on YouTube. As my base color I used two coats of H&M - Bella's Choice which is a bit darker in real. Then I did my first mistake and started to use acrylic paint to paint the black and white lines and the first row of dots. The acrylic paint gave the dots a poor texture so I used nail polish for the second row of dots. And as soon as I added my top coat (BTGN Top Sealer) I could see the lines splitting and the dots smudging. So you can tell that I'm not very happy with this one, although it looks good from afar. But I look very closely at my own nails. ;)

NOTD: Stripes & Curves
I had absolutely no idea what I was gonna paint on my nails this time. So I just covered them with a white base, took two pretty colors out of my stash and started painting.
I chose Essence - True Love and Catrice - Put Lavender On Agenda and in addition I tried my new nail art brush from Essence (Nail Art Designer Set). It's my first long brush and I have to say it makes it easier to paint thin lines. But I wouldn't recommend the one from Essence because it doesn't seem to have the perfect quality in my opinion.
I love the design on my ring finger nail, I will definitely do this as a whole design someday. On my thumb I have the popular cloud design from Nailside which you can find here. I accidentally deleted the pictures of my thumb so you're not gonna see it this time, sorry about that.
Two coats of BTGN Top Sealer this time since the white base coat was showing really quick and I had to repair some nails.
