The other day I tried to save the last drops of my now thickened black nail polish. Not having a nail polish thinner makes a girl resort to cheapie methods such as using alcohol or acetone.

Big mistake. Big. Huge.

I got what I paid for – a thinned out nail polish that peels off when you glance at it and unexpected manicure as a bonus. With my conscious efforts of trying not to be such a perfectionist, I actually didn’t mind this little mishap. I continued wearing it for the rest of the week until the last remnants of nail polish finally gave up.

Now, you might like the messy look of my unexpected manicure, but are reluctant to ruin your fresh nail polish. Just grab a polish color of your choice and have fun with different techniques. Paint some nails fully, some halfway and for some follow the steps of my undone manicure. Done!
