It just dawned on me that in less than two days I'll be going into surgery to get my wisdom teeth out. It really has been like summer over here because I didn't know we were this close to Friday already! Have any of you guys had your wisdom teeth out? I'd love to hear your tips or stories, good or bad! Both of my bottom ones are sitting right against this artery and nerve bundle so if my surgeon cuts or bruises the nerve(s) I will lose feeling in the lips, chin and cheek on that side. He seems confident about removing them now that we did this cool cone beam CT scan and we found out they're on the tongue side. Anyways, I'm not very worried about that, just the eating only soft foods for a few weeks and having to crush up T3's and probably taste them (I can't swallow pills).
This is turning into a long post word-wise so... onto the nails!
To start, I applied two coats of OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls and allowed it to dry. I then painted two coats of liquid latex around my nails for easier clean up, or so I thought. The liquid latex peeled off in tiny pieces and was terrible to work with, much like the previous time I used it. Since purchasing Simply Peel I will never battle with that stupid liquid latex again. Ana formulated Simply Peel herself and it is a liquid latex product that works amazingly! In one thin coat it works infinitely better than any liquid latex I could have imagined after using that other stuff!
Next, I went in with Girly Bits Hip Hoop Hurray! (the pinker purple that I'm holding in the picture below) and Girly Bits Get Indie Flow (the blue-toned purple on most of my nail) on a damp sponge. After three to four layers of sponging I applied a coat of top coat to blend the colours further.
Finally, I went in with American Apparel Hassid and a striping brush for the funky-looking wheat. An additional coat of top coat and a bit of clean up and I was done!
I absolutely loved wearing these nails and looking at these pictures now, I'm still madly in love with the design! What do you guys think of this look? I'd love to know!
Thanks so much for reading! I'll be back with some lattice nails as well as some strawberry nails very soon! Happy Wednesday! :)
