Peeling Nails NOTD

Hey guys today I want to show you a quick nail design I came up with that I've named 'Peeling Nail'!!! I know the name doesn't make it sound very appealing but hopefully you'll understand the logic (or not ) behind it. I was messing about with some polishes and thought it would look cool if the top nail colour looked like it was peeling in the corner to reveal another colour underneath. This is what I finally came up with. Not sure if the intention is obvious but I'm quite happy with the overall design.


You can paint the tips any colour or even make a pattern. The triangle bit in the center is supposed to be the peeling bit!

Perhaps a little shading would help with the effect?

And a white polish!


Anyway I hope you liked the design and will give it a go. If you do be sure to show me!

Sorry this post is short, I've been doing 12 hour shifts and am shattered!

  3. You can really tell with the thumb! I think the blue/light blue on the other fingers throw me off a little! Maybe? I don't know but the thumb is awesome!

  7. Thank you all for your lovely comments and I'm glad you like it.

    @imfeelingnail-venturous, I agree I'm not sure the blue works as well as the white but I also think having short/little nail (as in surface area) doesn't help! :-)
