Nail Art Tips: The Princess Party Nails

by xin on October 13, 2008

I have many short-lived passions, I hope scribbling on my nails won’t be one of them. It’s been long since I last painted my nails and my left hand seemed to have lost some control of holding the tool. Long story cut short, let’s check out my latest creation. I called it the Princess Party Nails.

assorted nail polish

Tool:
1. Sally Hansen Top & Base Coat
2. Elianto pink nail color
3. Elianto black nail color
4. Elianto transparent with silver dust
5. Dotting tool ( I forgot to include this in this picture!!! How could I??? )

first step

Step 1: Paint a layer of base coat, blow dry,then paint a layer of pink, blow dry, then finally dot some black dots as border. It’s actually some random dots, if you look close enough, the line is crooked here and there.

half way done

Step 2: Swipe a layer of silver dust polish at the tip to create the bling! As you might observe, one layer is actually not enough to pick up the dust to create the impact. You might need several layers.

final product

The final product! All blings! You must also know that silver dust takes quite a long time to dry and it keeps chipping off if you accidentally touch something else before it is thoroughly dried. I took 2 hours to paint the whole 10 fingers!

I don’t have a picture of both hands as I can’t take a picture of both hands myself, but my right hand definitely did a better job than my left.
