Hello Kitty Nails


As requested by TC!
I had so much fun making this nails but I am a little upset that the quality of the pictures didn't turn out as good as I wanted (I used my camera phone)






Step 1: Paint your nails of any dark color to make the background. I chose black because I like the way it goes so good with white and pink ( Hello kitty colors!)



Step 2: Now we are going to make a very thick white line at the edge pf the nail, kinda like a french tip but way thicker. This is going to be the face.


Step 3: Now is time to make the bow! this might be one of the trickiest part, but it is very easy to make all you have to do is make 2 small triangles and then a circle in the middle. Use a toothpick to dab the pain inside of the shapes




Step 4: Hello Kitty's face time! Okay for this part you might need a thin brush or a toothpick. Make 2 oval shapes in black for the eyes, one yellow circle for the nose, and 2 or 3 lines on each side of the kitty's face for whiskers.

Lightning Nails

Request by rabid-angry-llama: Lightning Nails!


This is actually one of my favorites so far, it is very simple to do. If your hand shakes when painting your nails then this is the nails for you!




Step one: 

Paint your nails black 


Step two:

For this tutorial I used a shimmery metallic blue and a napkin. You can use a dark blue or a silver to create the same effect. 


Place a drop of the metallic blue color on a piece of paper and tap in with a little piece of napkin.





Step Three: 

Tap the piece of napkin on your nails, do it all around the nail but make sure you can still see the black underneath it. The napkin is used to give it texture without covering up the black.


It should look like this, like a blue and black night sky. 

Step four: 


Now is time to draw the lightning. Using a thin brush, draw shaky lines down your fingernail and then from that original line make smaller lines coming out of it.  





Step five: 


Repeat the same step on all your nails, make sure that each nail looks a little different.


Step six: 

For a final touch add a little silver glitter to the lighting but not too much, this will make them sparkle a little. 


Thank you for your request, I had a lot of fun doing it :)
