Electric Blue Deep V Tip nails
Electric Blue with a Milky Cobalt chevron driven up from the free edge, which lengthens the nail hard.
3 bottles: Electric Blue, Milky Cobalt and Petrol Blue. Electric Blue and Milky Cobalt sit a comfortable distance apart: the motif is clearly legible without shouting, which is the easiest range to freehand in. The bottles are not all the same finish (crème and sheer), so the pattern picks up light differently from the ground.
On an oval the design is not stretched or compressed anywhere, which makes it the most neutral setting of the lot.

Questions about Electric Blue Deep V Tip
Is Electric Blue Deep V Tip hard to do at home?
It is the hardest tier on the site. It is doable at home, but the technique is the point rather than the colour. Budget an hour or more for a full set, and three colours means three chances for something to bleed, so cure between each one rather than working wet on wet.
What polish do I need for Electric Blue Deep V Tip?
3 bottles: Electric Blue (crème), Milky Cobalt (sheer) and Petrol Blue (crème). Plus a base coat and a gloss top coat, which every design here assumes you already have.
Does Electric Blue Deep V Tip work on short nails?
Oval is one of the better shapes for a short nail: it lengthens the look of the bed without needing free edge to do it, so the design carries over unchanged.
How many coats does Electric Blue Deep V Tip need?
More than you would expect. Milky Cobalt is translucent, so the colour builds over three thin coats rather than covering in two. Stop wherever you like the depth — that is the point of a sheer.
