I felt the need to do something different and this is what happened:
Notice the black line. Without it, the manicure looks very unfinished.
Skin toned color- OPI "Canberra't Without You"
(topped with Essie "Matte About You" to reduce shine)
Dark Red- OPI "We'll Always Have Paris"
Black line- Stripe Rite (Black)
How do you feel about it?
I think it looks pretty good. I just wish I'd had a darker flesh tone color to match my skin better!

Gorgeous, will try this !
Love vampires! not twilight one's thought...heh I'm and old school girl.
Wow, I really love it! :D
I really like this! It's got an edgy feel without being completely unpractical like stiletto nails, I think it's a good substitute :]
That is too cool!!! LOVE IT!!!
That's awesome very creative!
It's neat! I think I'll try something similar, with different colors. :)
This is a really great idea and it looks amazing!!!!
Very inovative mani! :)
I think this is great.. It is kind of creepy, but in a ridiculously amazing way!!
Thanks for all of the wonderful comments guys! :)
Pkbmum- I will try to work a tutorial for this in next week! :)
I really like it! You did a fantastic job! so unique.

This os so cool, I love it!!
This is awesome and I love the color you chose for it.
Interesting! You're so creative! :D
I think this looks fantastic. Very nice!

Very cool idea! It looks much better than a reverse french
Ohh this is very original and interesting!
This is an outstanding design. I've been wanting to do something with a deep red polish and this is great inspiration.

great idea!
Oh my goodness, that is so cool!
so creepy but it definitely is gorgeous!
Whoa! Sweet!
Gosh, that's sooo clever and skilful, looks great and I love the OPI dark wine colour, fab. You have inspired me to go paint my nails! Bx
Really great idea - and not creepy to me at all!
This is really cool! I think I definitely have to try this one some time :)
AWESOME! Did you use guides to get the tip shape?
I don't think it's creepy. Well it is, but creepy = awesome in my world.
A great way to get a nail color that completely matches your skin tone is to take a mineral or loose powder makeup that you have (that matches your skin tone, of course) and mix a little with clear polish. It's a way to achieve the ultimate mannequin hands look.
It is so cute!! Really love this and the colors are beautiful!
This is REALLY pretty. I couldn't tell *at all* that used a nude base .. it matches your skintone really well! I love this look. And it would look nice with different colors too!
