it's sad that during party season, i find myself without the tools to create amazing abstract artworks of nails! at 3am last night (while watching full metal alchemist... LOL), i decided to give my poor little neglected nails some love. this is a very, very simple look that will take you ten minutes maximum! you will need:
1. metallic pink nailpolish
2. metallic beige nailpolish
3. gold glitter nailpolish
these were just nailpolishes laying around in my room! told you it was easy. you could use any colour, as long as you have a glitter one that can also serve as a topcoat.
1. using the metallics, alternate the colours with different nails. for example, i have two pink nails on my left hand, and only one on my right. my ring finger on my left has beige with pink tip (: get creative and/or random, haha.
2. paint at the maximum, two coats of the polish. only two because too much will make it easier to damage later, plus it'll already feel quite heavy once you start to put the glitter on! if the colour doesn't look solid after two coats, you might need a stronger polish.
3. if you want, stick a rhinestone or two during this step while the polish is semi-dry! i just used one on my ring finger.
4. glitter time! paint one coat generously over your nails, including the rhinestones! this will help seal them.
5. if the glitter is too widely spread and you want a more intense look, paint another coat! it's up to you to paint 3 coats, but again i prefer 2 so your nails don't feel too heavy (this is a light, simple look!)
and.... voila! set, dry, enjoy! simple, cute and easy!
