What I wore on April 2025?

Time for a new entry on what was on my nails and I will say that... it wasn't that much at all! This month I only did three manis, so we're not going to have much discussion about them!

On April 7th I decided to try out Holo Taco's Ride or Diamond, because, I mean, it was April's gemstone and I wanted some fun. But it had no green, so... I added some to it!


That green? Literal highlighter. I painted on top of the polish with green highlighter, top coat and called it a day. I love the effect and the french tip that I created like it. It is not the cleanest technique, and black light shows up all the mistakes, but if you don't look, you don't know.

Sadly, this manicure chipped very quickly, and I had an event to attend to, so I needed a new manicure by April 11th:


You may recognize them from my Penitent in the Night tutorial, as I did them on my actual nails. I had plans to do them, as I say in that post, due to a national holiday. It ended already and I didn't partake in it, by the way! But wearing it on my nails was quite fun!

Then I wore these nails for almost two weeks, I didn't plan to wear them for this long, specially matte! But I scheduled a nail stream on my twitch channel for the 24th and I just didn't feel like doing a placeholder manicure for 3 days, so I stuck with them. The theme? Chat chooses every step.

I ended up with Holo Taco's Wicked Potion magnetized horizontally and half of the nail painted with Holo Taco's Celestial Lights. I ended up liking the manicure a lot, to be this random!


I honestly think that this half and half can look really pretty, it's just that these two polishes didn't have enough contrast to shine! I also don't fully love that the vibe is similar to the previous one, dark and cool toned, but beggars can't be choosers.

 I feel a bit guilty thinking "I want to do more manicures!" because if I still like the manicure and looks good, it should not be a problem to extend them, and that way I save polish! So I will not promise anything, but I will attempt to make more varied manis this month, at least!
