My 4th of July Mani

Good evening everyone! I wanted to take a quick second to wish all of you a very safe and happy 4th of July tomorrow! I'm actually off work, so I'm hoping to enjoy some sleeping in and some family time. Tonight I wanted to share with you my mani that I did for the 4th. I used some Mentality polishes, as well as some Pop Culture Cosmetics stencils. Let's get started!
For my mani I used my latest polishes from Mentality. The white is Sunny, the red is Beautiful and the blue is Tough. The formula on these were amazing as usual with any Mentality polishes. I used 2 coats for all colors used. For the Pop Culture Cosmetics stencils, I used a medium star as well as some stripes. After I was finished I realized my star is a little crooked and my lines aren't perfectly straight, but I still like it none the less. I topped it off with my Ellagee Glass top coat. The directions for using the stencils are as follows: 1. Let your base color completely dry. 2. When placing the stencil onto the nail, make sure to lightly press down in the corners to prevent any polish from getting underneath. 3. Paint over top of the stencil using 1-2 coats of polish of your choice. 4. Make sure to remove the stencil while the polish is still wet. 5. Allow enough time for your mani to dry and apply your favorite top coat.



If you're interested in picking up and of the items I used for my mani, you can find Mentality on Facebook and you can also find Pop Culture Cosmetics on Facebook as well as the shop here.
