Nail Art Tips: The late halloween nails

by xin on November 3, 2008

It’s monday again ladies! Wish weekends were longer? I spent my sunday hunting for some new nail stuff. And look at what i have got! So, let’s put them together and see what I can do with it.

nail stuff

White nail polish, pink nail polish, one nail glue, 6 bottles of stones for RM10, one tiny brush for drawing, and the transparent casing!

french tip

1. Apply a base coat, then a pink layer, then finally a french tip. My french tip looks crooked! Maybe I should get the stickers for french tip for a perfect one. Leave it thoroughly dry before moving to next step. I always use a hair dryer to blow it dry.

putting glue

Use a toothpick to pick some glue, some shops sell the sticks for sticking the gems and stones, but bah! It is so expensive! And toothpick is cheaper, with tinier tip, hence easier for work.

sticking a stone

Then, pour out some gems on the casing and pick it up with the toothpick that has touched a little bit of glue. Just a LITTLE bit will do, not too much.

step 4

Then stick it on your nail. It’s better to have a draft in mind on what designs you would like to have before sticking the gems. I had no clue on what i planned to do…and ended up with something hilarious.

half way through

Ta dah! Doesn’t it look like a pair of eyes with nose? Then i further completed with…

completed nail art

LOL! A string of mini pearls! I wanted my nails to look…girlish and who knows i ended up with a pumpkin-lookalike nails 🙁

I will get better with this next time!

P/S: I have only painted my thumb.. i was too tired to continue.

I’d definitely need the sticky tape as a guide if I were to do french tips. I’m absolutely hopeless at it 😛
