Ever have that set that really humbles you? I wasn’t going to post these, I’m real late, but here it goes… how’d I do? Would you wear these?💋❤️

inspo is last photo from @nailsbyleesliee on insta!!❤️💋

How did I do!? Are these a slaaaay? Or a nayyyy and would you wear them!?

I know these aren’t a crazy intricate set, but I just started doing my own nails last April. I am by no means an artist so drawing and painting is a big challenge for me. I also have trouble designing my own sets, I take a lot of inspo but I’m working on it.

I haven’t had this much trouble with a set yet, the way these gave me. I almost gave up on them, more than once—and I almost didn’t post them either, which is why I’m super late to the party lol.

Nothing was going right, I couldn’t get the perfect base color it was either too light or too warm, or too sheer but I’m learning and growing with each set I do, and I am my own worst critic.

They are a little thiCc bc I needed to add more coats than I wanted, just to get the perfect color and opacity, I filed off the color 2 times and I wasn’t doing it again.. which is a step for me bc my perfectionism doesn’t let me rest lol. Same with the kisses and bows, I could do better.. but I repainted them so many times over countless hours so I finally said— these have to do🤷‍♀️

Also, my cuticles are ALWAYS red, nails on or not— I’ve been working on them for months now and they just stay red lol so they are not painful or picked at— just red, always.

Anyways, please be nice❤️
