So today I thought that I would change it up and do something that I have never done before. It was inspired by Glam Nail's Twitter picture.

Thank you, Jezebel!
Based off her directions, I ran into a few bumps in the road while making it. So, I am going to make my own directions, enjoy.

Thank you, Jezebel!
Based off her directions, I ran into a few bumps in the road while making it. So, I am going to make my own directions, enjoy.
Materials:
- Two contrasting nail polishes. One can be large brushes and one a decorating small brush. (My ex. is neon pink and orange.)
- Black nail polish
- Toothpick or disposable eyeliner tool.
- Glossy paper, (My ex. is a real estate card)
- Nail Polish Remover (For mistakes)
So let's start!
- Apply the large base nail polish of choice, you can apply again if you like
- Then with the small decorating nail polish, use very little nail polish. Dab onto nail, circlelike. Don't worry if you don't have a steady hand. The more creative the better! Only have 5-6 on all of the finger except for the pinkie and thumb. More dots for the thumbs, only about four for the pinky.
- " Spread 'em out, and make sure they aren't too centered — have some blobs that start at the cuticle, some that start way off to the edge of the nail, and some that go off the tip."- Jezebel
- Grab your black nail polish and drip it onto your glossy paper.
- Get your toothpick or other tool of choice and dip it into the drip of black nail polish.
- Using your tool, go around the contrasting blobs. One side big c, other side little c. Tip: to make it look natural make sure they aren't all in the same direction.
- Repeat to other hand.
- For staying power apply top coat!
End result:
super cool tutorial! :D
