Idaho Potato

So all over pinterest I have been seeing these awesome nails that half the nail is diagonally glitter and and other half solid and so of course I wanted to try it!  I did this manicure with Idaho Potato by Urban Outfitters.  For my glitter I used SIDECAR by Urban Decay.

I started out with my typical manicure using Essie's Protein Base Coat, then a thin layer of Idaho Potato, followed by a thicker layer of Idaho Potato.  Let this dry completely before you go onto the next step or you are going to create a mess for yourself!  I used literally the least sticky tape I could find (just regular scott tape) to be sure it wouldn't rip my first color off.  Lay your tape diagonally across your nail making sure it is completely stuck along the line you're going to paint against.

Remove the tape and apply your top coat, I used Seche Vite.  I loved the way this turned out and I hope you do too!

It's easier to see the detail with this filter over the picture from Instagram so I'm adding it!
