How I clean up after Nail Smooshes / Watermarbles / Decals (Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Earlier)

This is a very rough, phone camera tutorial of me cleaning up the following mani:

I see a lot of questions in facebook groups asking how, and apart from the general 'acetone and a brush' response I couldn't find something that went into detail. I'm writing this from a 'what I wish someone had told me' point of view - by no means am I any sort of expert at how to do this. This is just how I do my clean up, and it took me a while to learn to get a clean, neat line.

Anyway, enough rambling. Without further word vomit, I present the inaugural 'Things I Wish Someone Had Told Me Earlier' (TIWSHTME).

NAIL ART ROUND-UP - Halloween 2017 + UPDATE

I've been incredibly slack about posting here but I've been a busy bee throughout the month of October doing lots of Halloween nail art. This is a quick round up of my manis - you can see more pics on my instagram using the #bilbypawshalloween17 

I've also decided to try and use this blog as more of a waffling / how-to set-up that is going to move a bit away from the image-based, "look here is this thing I did" format. That's what I'm using Instagram for. I know a lot of bloggers do this to try and monetise their blogs / get stats on hits but I'm not that. I will never be a swatcher who can do a quick turn around because of my health.
