Encased Swirls
These are the 1st time i have done encased nail art on myself. I have used EZ Flow Carnival colours. I used clear tips first, blended them in, then did the swirls, then encased with EZ Flow pink instead of clear as i need the help of the pink for my own nails.

I would like your opinion on the shape, length and style of design. It took me 2 hours to apply the product, an hour to prep and finish.

Looking forward to all your comments, what ever they will be.

really nice mate ,nothing to say except on personal preference I don't like a soft square I would prefer to see them completely squared off or stiletto, but thats just my own preference as I say, coz they are brill, I have had a go at something similar so can appreciate how hard it was to do

The length, I find, personally for me is a little too long.
Shape, I love the soft square look.
Use of colour, my favorite mix of colours!
Love the design, particularly like the way you've got the gaps between the design the same.

Cool ! Well done to you !

Wellllllll I'm a long nail wearing kind of girl.So.......... those really work for me

I like the square, even if the edges are softend. Mine are always sharp squares, but by 2wks, they're soft squares from the abuse they've taken LOL

I like what you did..and personally can't find fault with them.

Please keep sharing.
