In case you’ve been around the globe of nails currently, that shattered glass nails are nonetheless going robust! Even amongst the ocean of chrome and unicorn holo, I nonetheless see shattered glass results being included into manicures.
The essential thought of shattered glass nails includes placing shards of iridescent cellophane, origami paper, or reflective tape in your nail to create a singular and eye catching glass look. Here is a barely completely different look that I did with the fashion!
Here is the best way to get the search for your self in gel:
- Use a star-shaped gap punch to punch stars out of hula hoop tape
- Apply gel base coat, treatment
- Apply gel colour coat(s), treatment. Take away cheesy layer with isopropyl alcohol.
- Peel off the backing from the celebs and stick them firmly onto your manicure
- Apply a coat of gel topcoat or construction gel
over the celebs, treatment
- If wanted, buff the floor of your nails flippantly to clean out any tough edges
- Apply a last coat of gel topcoat, treatment, cleanse
My largest tip for you on these is to prep your stars earlier than you begin doing anything. That isn’t a process you wish to be doing with moist polish or sticky-halfway-done-gels. I used hula hooping tape from HoopSupplies.com, and gap punched out the shapes with a star formed gap punch from Michael’s. Whereas I used to be at it, I prepped a bunch of them and saved them in an empty nail artwork pot.
Because the tape is so awesomely iridescent, it was powerful to {photograph}! I had good success capturing the true impact of the celebs with my iPhone within the photograph above.
What do you suppose? Have you ever tried this pattern? Is that this a glance you’d put on?
