Been seeing this look on Tumblr and wanted to try it out. I love this but I would have to sport this in the fall/winter months.
You will need:
- Jordana in Black
- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Blue Me Away!
- Jordana in Lemon Tropic
- Wet n Wild Mega Last in Soul Mate
- Wet n Wild Wild Shine in Sapphire Blue
- Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Strobe Light
- Seche Vite Top Coat
- Makeup sponge (or any dense sponge)
1. Black base! You can probably use another colour for a base but black looks best.
2. Put a drop of blue (
Blue Me Away) on a piece of paper. Dab the corner of your sponge in it and then dab off any excess on the paper.
3. Carefully dab/sponge on the blue. Do it in a messy pattern. It doesn't matter if you're clean or not.
4. Using the same sponge, dip it in pale pearly green (
Lemon Tropic). I dabbed on the edges of the blue.
5. Next is a pearly purple (
Soul Mate). I dabbed this one over randomly to create some depth.
6. I used a pearly dark blue (
Sapphire Blue) to balance it all out.
7. Finally, I topped it off with some glittery polish (Strobe Light). Remember to top coat to seal it on in =)
Now you have the galaxy in your hands. This is actually a fairly simple design to do.
Some tips:
You should wait for the black to dry before proceeding with sponging. Also, I used the same sponge for all the colours. I'm not sure if that makes a difference but the colours seem to blend better. And finally, you can also create larger stars by using a dotting tool and white polish. Just dot on a few random large stars.
It's a tough one to remove from your nails but at least it looks good while it's on =P
Hope you liked this one!
