Many lessons were learned today:

  • Scotch tape can only be separated from partly-dry nail polish with great difficulty
  • Masking tape will not stick reliably to partly-dry nail polish
  • Waiting 2-3 hours between each coat is both annoying and extremely inconvenient, and also not long enough
  • Ballpoint pen ink is very hard to remove from a cuticle while keeping the polish intact

That said, I’m pretty happy with the results even though I don’t think I’d do this regularly :3
