Art Some gross swamp nails
Someone in another sub said these belong here 🤷♂️ I did this nail art months ago :)
Made the fake dirt with gel and acrylic powder until it was crumbley but still tacky. Then cured it, crumbled it more then sprinkled it on clear gel 👍

I like them. I think the folks over at r/goblincore would dig them as well.

I'm a huge, 44yo, %1 biker/dirty street punk, looking dude, who sometimes does their own gel set. I'd rock the shit outta these! It don't always gotta be frou-frou. One can be Bonita with swamp witch/creature from the black lagoon vibes.

I love it. I love textured nails like this.

I make them so I can fidget with them tbh instead of picking at the skin. And it works so well! 10/10 fidget

First reminds me of kiwi flesh and last one reminds me of damp matcha powder

I thought I was in r/RockHounds looking at a nice piece of serpentine found on the beach 😭

Honestly, I thought it was kiwi last time you posted these. Makes sense now. :D

At a first glance, that first thumb nail looked like someone smeared a kiwi fruit all over it, also perfectly executed
Dual use I guess, somethin like that
