NOTN: American Apparel - L'Esprit with temporary tattoos from Walmart ++

I've been itching to do a temp tattoo mani since I have so many of them and haven't been using them often.
I found these tattoos in the section of Walmart that has kids party favors. They cost either 88 or 99 cents for the pack. Super cheap.

Here are all 4 sheets laid out:

1


Soo... since I didn't want a white base, but I wanted something light enough for them to show, I choose this AA. Ohmigoodness, I forgot how nice the AA formula is! This is ONE COAT!!!

2


And finally, after sweating through putting on the temp tattoos -deciding on placement, and messing up a few... I used my trusty nail art pens to camouflage some of my mistakes, lol. Here's the finished mani (thanks for taking the picture hubby-dearest!)

Sometimes I like it, sometimes it looks like a hot mess. I haven't decided yet.
