Hi there! Today’s post is another Nail Of The Day post. ๐
For this mani I painted my nails with Rimmel 60 Seconds 820 Hot Black To Go. Whilst this polish doesn’t dry in 60 seconds (or 120, or 180…), I do like it!
Hot Black To Go is almost a one-coater (I need to try if it stamps!), and it’s perfect for foil manis! ๐ But let’s move on… for this mani I used a colourful foil (with a somewhat psychedelic pattern) which I applied several ‘layers’ of.
How does this work? It’s super easy. All you have to do is press the foils onto the near-dry-yet-still-tacky nail polish and peel them off again – it’s almost like ripping off a band aid! ๐
I think this mani turned out alright. It’s considerably more colourful than intended, but I couldn’t help myself. I just kept adding to it! Also, many apologies for the so-so picture. Foil manis can be difficult to capture on camera, and they can look ‘rough’ in pictures – but they’ll always look better in real life.
I’ll do a tutorial on foils shortly! It’s going to be fun, I promise. And it’s super easy to do! Feel free to comment. And thanks for stopping by! ๐
Wow this reminds me of space .โค

This foil reminds me of these plastic polymer strips I used to buy as a kid to make jewellery. When you put them in warm water, they become pliable and I shape them into various shapes. They all had mottled foiled designs like your nails!

By the way, I’ve been thinking about what you said about me writing my book and having a health section. I decided to do that instead and write for me. Thank you!
