FAIL?

Hi Little Nailiens,
This is a real “FAIL”, because it’s a fish on a nail! Got it? Fish+Nail makes Fail… uh this was terrible 😅

This mani turned out okay but I would like it better if it was smoother… Let me explain why they look like they look.
I wanted to create some water texture nails. So I mushed together Ciate’s 066 "Headliner", Catrice’s 01 "On Top Of The Alpes" and Kiko’s 339 "Cornflower" with a stamper on a piece of plastic. While this sea of polish was still wet I sprinkled in some transparent duo chrome flakes
They shift from baby blue to a gold yellow, come in a good amount in a plastic container and are irregular cut.
After it has dried enough to peel it off, I painted my nails in one coat of "Headliner", cut off a piece of the decal and stick it on. Tried to smooth out the surface and the edges with nail polish remover.
The nail polish decal was so cumbrous to apply. I don’t know if the reason for that is that the polish hardened too much or the flakes. So it all is bulky and uneven.
Than I made the fish. I picked up the design from plate Y017 on the stamper and left it there, because this stamper is perfect for decal making. You can screw off the handle and lay down the head flat, so you don’t have to get the rubber head out of the handel and risk destroying the decal. I filled in the fish with "Headliner" and a clear polish and flakes mixture. Let that dry a bit and stamped it on. Top coated all that and finished.

 So is this a fail or just a fish on a nail? Definitely the second!
