Clear coat between layers is so essential for that depth with translucent nail looks! I only do gel nail art because I’m terrible at regular polish, but honestly your pattern turned out better than any other tutorials I’ve watched using gel, bravo!

THANKS THANKS THANKS!!! I have 9 turtles/tortoises and wanted to do this nailart for a really long time but I dont have gel so I was never able to do it but now I cant wait!

Wow I’m here in the fall of covid and I’m anticipating reclosures so I’m back to DIY nail YouTube 😭 glad I found you

[MoreThanNailVarnish]

I'm not really the type to follow trends but this design is really nice. You did a fabulous job by the way! 😍

Yay thank you for this-I’m allergic to gel polish (took me a while to figure this out) and have wanted to try this for a while thinking it could only be achieved with gel.

This looks like it would take quite a few tries to get right 😂 But the result is gorgeous! And imagine having these nails with a matching bag or pair of sunglasses?? So cute

Thank you for posting this! Looks amazing. I really wanted to do the pattern but all the tutorials were for gel nails

I love it so much! It gives me a nice nostalgic 90’s feel and I LOVED 90’s fashion!

Your color choice is great for the fall season. I absolutely love your design~♡

I’m sure you’ve seen the Cirque Colors tortoise shell kit? Jellies that make this look so easy!
You have a great take on this look with polishes we may already have 😊🙌

Best tutorial I’ve seen!!! Thanks girl

[primandu]

Omg thank you for this!! I've been wanting to try it but didn't want to buy gels for it!!

[belovedbeautynails]

I LOVE THIS TREND!!! YOU DID AN AMAZING JOB!!! I LOVE IT!

[stampinsher]

You did a FABULOUS & BEAUTIFUL JOB! Have you or will you try to use Magnetic Polish for an "almost" similar look. I have a whole set from Born Pretty except I am not as good as their easy instructions. My worst problem are my nails look really bad & I can't wait until they are better to be polished pretty.
Thank you!
