Essie- Mojito Madness With Stripes!

Boy, oh boy, I sure love me some green polish! I saw this pretty baby at Walgreens and just had to pick it up. I'm not on a no buy or anything..... ;)

I knew before I put Mojito Madness on that I was going to love it. I also knew I wanted to add some type of design. I had yet to try out my striping tape I ordered so I pulled it out and this was the end result! I call this design, "American Eagle Chic" LOL! Doesn't it look like a polo shirt you would get from American Eagle!? I love it regardless, and I was very happy with the application of Mojito Madness. It has perfect two coat coverage. As for it being my first time using striping tape, it was fairly easy. I did my two coats of Mojito Madness topped with a coat of Poshe, laid down the tape, applied a thick layer of OPI- No Room For The Blues, pulled off the tape, LET IT DRY (very important or it will smudge when you apply your top coat), laid down the silver stripe and applied a second coat of Poshe. And that my friends, is how you can achieve your "American Eagle Chic"mani at home! On to the pictures!
