    Ouh cute!! I never had the patience to do those knitted texture nails but I love em, especially as a single accent nail.

    We also have /c/lemmylaqueristas that is a bit more active than /c/Nails btw, you can crosspost there!

      Thanks!! My partner said the sweater nail looks like a ribbed dildo 😭 it was originally jelly polish and it looked like jello before I put the matte top coat on.

      Thanks for the heads up, I’ll do that too!

    How did you achieve the texture on the ribbed dildo nail?

      Lol I do the first layer of the lines and then cure it, add another layer, and repeat until it’s built up enough to have definition. Then I lightly file it to make the height even before adding a thin layer of hard gel and finally a thin layer of matte top coat to finish!

    So beautiful, what polish did you use?

      This sets a bit complicated since my last set was black, so when I filed it down, I still had a few shadows from the last polish. Because of that, I used a solid opaque nude as a base on all of my fingers before using the actual colored polishes I wanted.

      The pinks are jelly GAOY nudes

      The glitter nails are actually a mix of metallic powder with rose gold glitter

      The thumb is Veronni pink metallic, though that one separates and gets streaky if I don’t mix it well before use!

      I use Beatles for the base and top coats along with a hard gel overlay for extra strength 😊
