31 Day Challenge: Day 16 (Tribal)

I was wearing Chanel Blue Boy and Blue Rebel a few months ago and when I had them on, I decided to do some nail art.I hope you guys won't stone me for using a $2 Daiso white nail art polish to paint over my Chanel nails but I couldn't resist doing a tribal pattern! I kinda knew back then that I already wanted to do this challenge so I kept this mani for Day 16!

The lines weren't as clean as I hoped for but this is rather close up so it looks less messy irl! The design was done during my school term so that's how long ago it was drawn and since then, I'd like to think my hand has gotten more steady, so I attempted some more tribal designs on my nail wheel.

I think painting with a thin stripping brush really helped with keeping the lines clean and my stripping brush is actually from a Daiso glitter polish. I replaced the brush of that polish with another spare brush and have been using the stripping brush for thin lines ever since! Really like the brush so I think I better get a back up soon.
Glitter challenge is next!
