Feather me

Good afternoon!

Today, I thought I'd get a little adventurous & try putting a feathers on my nails. I was at my local craft store while going through the isles saw feathers in a package and decided to get ambitious... So this is the look I came up with.

Tutorial:

 1. Prime your nails with your favorite base coat.

2. Choose a base color

(I used China Glaze Bahamian Escape)

3. Apply a clear coat

3.5. Position feather on the nail 

(Do this while clear coat is still wet. I recommend doing this one nail at a time)

4. Apply clear coat

(wait til fully dry)

5. With small scissors cut excess feather

6. If theres rough edges lightly file down any tiny ridges

7. Apply top coat

WAH-LAH!

Definitely don't do this in a rush. It is a more time consuming look. I have herd the the feathers specifically made for nail art is a lot easier to manage, when using on the nail so, definitely look into that if you are interested in trying out this look. I'm thinking my next post might be a hair color product review.

Good luck! Let me know how it goes!
Until next time; smile cause it good for the soul! :)

Baby feet nail tutorial

Hey everyone!

ITS A BOY!! I got inspired by the soon arrival of my godson :D 

So I wouldn't exactly call this a tutorial like I promised, but I will write out step by step how I designed my nails.

1. Apply your favorite base coat

2. Apply 1 coat of white as a primer/base

(I did this because the polishes I used were very translucent)

3. Gradient effect with green stripe

gradient using a foundation sponge. 

I sandwiched mint green in between sky blue

Rock sponge side to side till your happy with the color.

4. Sole of foot

With a dotting tool make a kidney bean shape

I used a medium size & dragged with a smaller dotting tool

5. Toes

With a dotting tool make 5 dots 

remember where the big toe is should be a tiny bit bigger

6. Apply favorite top coat

You don't have to use this many colors, I was just very indecisive. :P

Be creative & have fun with it. Let me know what your thoughts are.

Feel free to share your version if you try it.

Good luck!  Until next time smile; its good for the soul :)
