MOD



This is my first attempt at this style.  I don't have any skinny brushed nail polished right now so I had to use the regular ones.  I can't wait to try it again when I have the right brush! 

Instructions:  My toes were already painted black so I first made the two big yellow v forms in the middle, then the smaller ones on the sides.  I then filled in the white.  I did a double coat of the yellow and white and then fixed mistakes by going back in with the black.  When I get the smaller brushes, I will try painting everything on to my bare nail, starting with the black X in the middle and expanding with the yellow and white. Stay tuned! I will most likely have this done on my friend's nails by Saturday :)

Cascading Glitter



Just paint your nails any color and when they are dry use a glitter nail polish on the tips.  You can double coat the very tip for the effect I have on the purple nails.  I only did one coat of glitter on the green.  I used Deborah Lippmann's "Today was a Fairytale".  Ode to taytay swift ;) Note on Deborah Lippmann polish- it is expensive but pretty and the glitter is so easy to get off.  Definitely worth your time and your hand doesn't cramp up when you try to take it off like normal glitter.
