Spring Dotticure!!

I am so excited for this post! I have had a horrible time learning to use dotting tools effectively...for some reason they have rarely worked for me in the past. Today I decided I was going to tackle it again, and I wasn't quitting until I got a dotticure I felt was good enough for me to post. I don't know if I scared the dotting tools into submission or what but this was my first attempt!!

One thing I did learn is to use a tool about two sizes smaller than you think you need. I attribute that to my success. Onto the dotticure!

I wanted something that said Spring is FINALLY here! Pastel colors always say Spring to me so I chose a light pink and a lavender cream for this. First I painted two coats of Cover Girl Outlast Stay Brilliant #145 (why do they not name their polishes I ponder), a lavender cream, on the pinky, ring finger, and thumb of my right hand and my index and middle finger of my left hand. Then I painted two coats of ellagee Forgetful Lucy, a light pink cream, on the index and middle finger of my right hand and the pinky, ring finger, and thumb of my left hand. After that dried completely, I dotted #145 over Lucy and vice versa.

I love how these turned out and hopefully my skill with the dotting tools continues to improve!
