Belated NOTD: Beautopia Inspired Tarte Inspired Nail Art

Yeah, I know, I suck at naming entries. And yes, I haven't posted in a while, simply because, I didn't have the mood to.

In case you missed it though, there is a small giveaway going on here.

Despite my inability to give good names, this is one hot NOTD! It's vampy, sexy, and makes me extremely happy.

You need to excuse my lousy photos once again. My camera doesn't seem to like me. All the larger macro photos taken under a lightbox were blurry, and that annoyed me. Seems like it's time to blow some money on a new camera.

Beautopia's version is prettier, as usual. But I excuse myself on the basis that, I didn't have any striper polish (aka those meant for nail art). I only had a fat-ass The Face Shop brush, which meant I painted all around the cuticles area, then did a massive cleanup.

My left hand is a goopy mess, but I guess at least I managed to make them still look like vampy hot red corsets. Moral of the story: I really have to learn how to walk before I run (or even fly). For someone who can't paint my nails properly on my right hand, trying to do nail art only spells the mess that's on my nails at the moment.

But whether I'm running, walking or flying, you've got to admit, this is oh-so freaking hot.
