DIY Easy St.Patty's Nails!

Thursday, March 13, 2014 | 0 comments

Hey guys!

Sorry I been MIA for the longest time! Just haven't had the time/motivation to blog, but now I'm back & hopefully for good! St.Patrick's Day is just right around the corner, & what better way to show off your green than nails?! This tutorial is easy & simple! Let's get started!

What you need:

- Base Coat

- Top Coat

- Green Nail polish

- Gold Nail polish

- Green acrylic paint

- Sparkly gold stripper polish

- Cuticle oil

First prep your nails with a base coat.

A base coat protects & helps staining of your nails. I'm using OPI's Nail Envy.

Next using a green polish, we're going to make a diagonal tip (I did all my nails except the ring finger). I actually am using 2 different types of green for this. First 2 coats will be OPI's 'green-wich village' than I'm going to put a pretty sheer shimmery green on top of that. I'm using CHINA GLAZE's 'entourage'.

On the ring finger do the same but with a gold polish. I'm using OPI's 'love. angel. music. baby'.

After using green acrylic paint & a stripper brush, outline the diagonal tip as shown for the green tips. For the gold use a gold stripper polish. I'm using L.A. COLOR's ART DECO '24k glitter'. For the green tips do another line underneath the green with the gold, & vice-versa on the gold tips. Wait for everything to completly dry, top coat; I'm using color club 'clear top coat' & finish off with cuticle oil!
