So today, I'll show you close up pics of the products I used to achieve this gorgeous look.
Its quick and really easy to do !
You don't have to be a professional to achieve this either, I'm not, and while I will admit, I could've made thinner lines, it came out pretty good.
To begin with, paint your nails with a basecoat (to protect them from the dark colors and the glitter, as well as to help the manicure last longer.
Once that's dry, choose 3 nails and paint those green. Add some green glitter (or any color you want if you have no green), and add a topcoat to seal it in.
Then on the remaining 2 nails, paint them brown. I used Essie's "Mink Muff", its not as brown as I wanted, but its the only brown I had.
Using a dotting tool, (or toothpick, striper brush, or paintbrush), paint a vertical line in white on the 2 nails you painted brown. Then, using that same white, paint 3 smaller horizontal stripes along the original vertical line.
Seal with a top coat and voila ! Pretty football inspired nails.
This is the original pic that gave me the inspiration. But I wasn't too keen on using the same fingers since I wanted it to look different.
Here's the products I used....
And here are the pics close up of each product....
