For this manicure you'll need:

• One coat of your preferred base coat (I used Ciate mini's Underwear)
• Two coats of a basic white - Here I used Barry M's Matt white.
• Misa's I will Survive - a black and Essie's I pink I can - baby pink for the stripes. Paint these on a plastic wrap, wait until it's fully dry before peeling and cutting into thin strips. Place carefully on the nail.
• Alternatively you could use nail vinyls which have been trending recently to create the stripes.
• With the black, pink, a yellow - China Glaze's Lemon fizz and a dotting tool, dot the colours randomly on the nail until you're happy with it.
• Seal with one coat of your preferred top coat. (I use Misa's UV Bounceback)

As much as I love my square nails I really wanted to see what it was like to have almonds so I went for it. This time instead of just filing my left hand I filed everything! Like last time it went wrong and it just didn't look right on me so I think I can stop dreaming about those almonds now. My nails are literally nubs right now but they're I've shaped them into sq-ovals. It'll stay like that until my nails get a bit more length. Thank gosh I have some posts lined up.
