I began by prepping my nails. I quickly filed them and cut away the excess cuticle. Then I applied a thin layer of Chip Skip by OPI. Let me tell you, this stuff is AMAZING and worth the investment. I can wear my manicures for at least two weeks without any chipping or peeling. Next, I put on a base coat. I used Double Duty by Sally Hansen for the first time and it's holding up so far! For the base I painted on two coats of Alpine Snow by OPI. Typically, I only use OPI because it has incredible coverage. In my opinion, it's worth the $8.00.
After that dried completely, I took a Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Black and made abstract lines starting at the edge of each nail. The best part is that you can't mess up (though in my opinion a couple of my nails look like black chromasomes on a white background)! To finish it off, apply a thin layer of the top coat of your choice.
And there you have it! A really quick, easy, edgy way to accessorize your outfits!
My roommate is obsessed with zebras. I will have to show this to her!
ReplyDeleteOoh cute! But there are a pretty limited range of social situations where you could pull this off... like, it would be cool at a concert, but definitely would raise some eyebrows at work. So I'm not sure I'll be pulling this off any time soon.
