Shellac Checkerboard Mani As Seen In InStyle Magazine

A first attempt at a checkerboard Shellac mani. A little challenging to do on your own but it looks pretty good. I like my "fruit punch" colors!

Carolyn Braden's Experimenting With CND Shellac Hot Pop Pink

This color matches my sunshine yellow colored toe polish. I used CND Shellac Hot Pop Pink and then regular polish for the designs. I always apply Shellac base coat, 4 coats of polish (instead of the recommended 2 coats.... 4 coats works best for me and my hardworking artist hands), and then the Shellac top coat. After using 99% alcohol to get the sticky remaining top coat off, I apply whatever designs I like and then repeat another Shellac top coat layer to the nails with the designs. I'm sure there are other ways of doing it but this routine works for me and does not chip.

Carolyn Braden's CND Shellac Hot Pop Pink

Here is the CND Shellac color Hot Pop Pink. This picture doesn't quite show exactly how pretty the color is. I would describe it as a magenta type pink. It's not too bright and I am loving it. I'm trying a french manicure using Cream Puff and Negligee next week so I'll post the results then.
