Double Ruffian

Hey guys! As you probably know, the school year just started up last month, and I have been swamped. I’ve always heard that senior year was the busiest one, but I never imaged just how much work my senior project would be. I’ve barely had time to do my nails at all these past few weeks, and I confess, I’ve worn some of my manis much longer than I normally would, to the point where they’re so chipped up that I can’t stand it anymore. But anyway, I know that no one comes here to hear me gripe about my personal life, so onto the nails! This is just a simple mani today, and all with polishes that I’ve used before:

From cuticles to tips, I used Essie Penny Talk, Sally Hansen Lava, and Love & Beauty Fire & Ice.

I was originally going to just do a ruffian with Penny Talk and Fire & Ice, but then I saw Lava sitting in my drawer, so I ended up doing a double ruffian ombre type nail. I’m not sure how I feel about all the layers, but I do love the colors next to each other. What do you guys think? And I’ve been seeing tons of people convert to pointer almond shaped nails lately. I’ve always been a rounded tip gal for as long as I can remember, but I’ve been thinking about trying out the pointier trend. Any tips on converting from those of you that have taken the plunge?
