Fail with nail art pen -_-"

Just a quick post on my try with the nail art pen I got from Primark, which turned out to be quite user unfriendly (>.<)

 I first used the pen tip and it was ok (ring finger) but after I used the brush, the pen tip kept leaking polish even without me applying pressure on the tube, leading to large blobs of polish and general messiness, argh....do let me know if there is a way to avoid this problem.

Anyway, it was supposed to be a black on nude design but since it turned out so badly, I tried to salvage it somewhat by applying Three Beauties Radiant Lavender, a sheer lavender with blue/purple shimmers. It is a pretty polish but best layered over a base color as it will probably take at least 3 coats to build up.

Thanks for viewing!

Purple silver pink cloud mani

Here's another cloud mani, with more differentiated colours this time....

Colours used:

Base - Three Beauties Radiant Lavender

Middle - Sally Hansen Celeb City

Tips - Essence Meet Me Now!

Radient Lavender is rather sheer and could have benefited from another coat (I put 2 for this) but it is quite pretty - shimmery purple, with flashes of magenta. Celeb City is a standard shimmery silver and although others have managed to stamp with it, I never had any success :( Meet me now is a purplish pink creme and applies quite well. 

That's about it...thanks for looking!
