NailArt Tutorial : Newspaper art (using WATER)



I seen this done many times, but every video said to use rubbing alcohol or even vodka, but then I found a few mentioning water. They used bottled or filterd water, I used plain tap water and it worked perfectly fine.

Below are better pics of what I used (since I forgot to show them one by one as I used them)

start with a base coat, i love this one because it has a nail strengthening formula

then.... add 2 thin coats of your favorite polish, i use this one....

Sorry I didn't add pics of the newsprint, I will next time. I was tired.

 Then I added some sparkle (this part is optional) (this one is also wet n wild shine)

Then finished off with 2 coats of top coat. I love this one, it dries so fast !

And this is the end result ! Don't forget to clean up around your nails with polish remover.

Hope you enjoy trying this yourself ! 

Buhbyeee for now ^_^


(clockwise from left to right)

water, base coat, top coat, clear sparkle polish, light color polish of your choice, 10 strips of newsprint, tweezers

(tweezers and sparkle polish are optional)

St. Patty's Day Mani !

Like my mani ? 



















This is my mani in honor of St. Patty's Day. 

On the accent fingers, I used a white polish from Billie brand polishes (purchased at DollarTree), and 2 different shades of green for the shamrocks, which I made using my Hollywood Nails Nail Art Stamping Kit. On all other nails, I have a shimmery/metallic green from Wet N Wild "Wild Shine" in the color C446C.

Hey everyone !

I honestly don't know what happened here, I had a few posts up but for some reason they were deleted. Thankfully I save EVERYTHING to my computer, so I still have the draft of the posts and the pics used, which I will be posting in the next few days.

I wanted to thank my wonderful viewer on youtube Jamie, for bringing it to my attention. 

I can't promise that I'll be consistant with my entries, due to personal issues as well as other things I have to deal with like my main blog, as well as my youtube channel and life as a stay-at-home single mom.

That's pretty much it for now, gotta go work on a video for tomorrow's upload (well technically today since it is after midnight here). 

Good night everyone and thanks for being here !
