Tutorial for blue and gold glitter nails Products Used Dazzle Dry nail polishes from whatsupnails.com @whatsupnails Base coat: Dazzle Dry – Base Coat Top coat: Dazzle Dry – Fast Dry Top Coat Dark Blue: Dazzle Dry – Dazzle Dry – Night to Remember Ella+Mila nail polishes from ellamila.com @ellamilapolish Metallic Gold: Ella+Mila – Gilded Gold Glitter: Ella+Mila – G-old Money Snake tape from whatsupnails.com @whatsupnails Studs and wax pencil from eBay Liquid nail tape Liquid Palisade (purple stuff) from whatsupnails.com @whatsupnails Latex free make up sponges from Target Song: Dj Dayf – G-Seх Steps: 1) Apply a base coat to protect your nails and then apply 2 layers of metallic gold nail polish on the middle and ring fingers and dark blue nail polish on the other nails. Let nails dry completely 2) Apply liquid nail tape (purple stuff) on the skin around the nails with gold nail polish for easier clean up and let it dry 3) Apply the glitter nail polish on a latex free make up sponge and start dabbing onto your nail. This way you can transfer as much glitter as you want to your nail. Repeat this step as many times as desired to get good glitter coverage. 4) Apply 1 or 2 layers top coat to seal glitter on your nails 5) Apply a strip of snake tape on your completely dry nail. You can use fast dry top coat to make your nails dry faster. Push tape to your nail using finger to make sure it sticks everywhere. 6) Apply dark blue nail polish on a sponge and start dabbing it on your nail. Let first layer of nail polish dry and start dabbing again to get opaque colors on the nail. You can paint over the tape as well but if you want to get the cleanest lines, I recommend using a sponge. Also metallic/shimmery nail polishes work the best. 7) Peel tape as soon as possible after you finish dabbing, while the nail polish is still wet. 8) Let design dry and apply a layer of fresh fast dry top coat holding brush parallel to the nail not to smear your design. 9) Apply top coat on other nails and add some studs using a wax pencil. You might need to apply top coat around the studs so you can seal them better to the nail and they don’t lose their shine

Tutorial for green and white nails Products Used Base coat: Dazzle Dry – Strengthening Base Coat Green: Dazzle Dry – Casablanca White: Dazzle Dry – White Lightning Top coat: Dazzle Dry – Fast Dry Top Coat Fast dry nail polishes Dazzle Dry are available for purchase on whatsupnails.com @whatsupnails Studs from eBay Pure Color dotting tool, Pure Color 10 detail brush, Whats Up Nails french tip tape from whatsupnails.com @whatsupnails Song: Dj Snake & AlunaGeorge – You Know You Like It Steps 1) Apply strengthening base coat to protect your nails and make them stronger 2) Apply 2 layers of white nail polish and let your nails dry. You can apply a layer of fast dry top coat to make your nails dry faster and prepare them for using nail tape 3) Apply french tip tape on completely dry nails and push it to the nail 4) Apply green nail polish over one side of french tip tape and peel it off as soon as possible (while nail polish is still wet) to get accurate lines 5) If you have steady hand, use tiny detail brush to draw a black line between white and green nail polish. In my case I used two strips of french tip nail tape that I placed on the nail with 1mm spacing and filled it in using black nail polish and a detail brush. Peel tape off as soon as possible (while nail polish is still wet) to get accurate lines 6) Using dotting tool and fresh or thinned black nail polish, create dots on the green part of a nail. You can clean dotting tool sometimes using a paper towel if needed. 7) Using black nail polish (or acrylic paint) and a detail brush, create a bow on the accent nail. To make it easier, try to turn your hand around to find the best position where you can draw your bow symmetrical. 8) Using a wax pencil add a black stud in the middle of the bow 9) Let design completely dry and then apply top coat. Use fast dry nail polishes or fast dry drops to make sure that the polka dots are completely dry. Also try to use fresh top coat because gloopy top coat can smear your design. When applying top coat try to not touch the nail with a brush, only touch the drop of top coat drop.
