Then and Now Throwback Nails: Tape Mani

As today is a Thursday I am throwing back to some nails I did in 2010, and recreating them now 11 years later to see if I have improved! While I don't own all the exact polishes used originally, I have used similar colours.

Silver Polish | Essence - Hex Hex!

Green Polish | Nails Inc - Optic Wave

Striping Brush

Not sure what I was thinking with the thumb French design originally, I think I have improved my painting as well as my tape skills.

Topic Tuesday: Do you have dupes?

Revlon Facets of Fuchsia is a dupe for Deborah Lippmann Bad Romance. I went to purchase Bad Romance for my Wedding polish but the department store didn't have it in stock so I ended up with the Revlon one. Facets of Fuchsia is a purple hex and micro glitters in a blackened base.
