Star Wars: The Last Jedi nail art


Hi everyone,

I went to see The Last Jedi in the Christmas holiday, I enjoyed it but I can understand why it has been negatively critiqued. Anyway, as with The Force Awakens, I painted my nails for the occasion.

Step 1: Paint one nail silver, two black and two red.

Step 2: Using a white polish paint the body of BB-8 and the porg. Let this layer dry properly as this will be a base for the characters.

Step 3: Paint the black thumb again using a glitter polish. Then write Star Wars on the nail in red, it may be a good idea to write it in white first if your red polish isn’t particularly opaque.   
Step 4:  Now paint the Kylo Ren mask on the other black nail. Use nail tape to get the lines more even and precise. Using the same silver add 3 dots to BB-8 these will be the centre of the orange circles.  

Step 5: Then, using an orange polish add some head details and feet to the porg and the circles to BB-8’s body. Use a dark brown to paint the porg’s wings and head stripe.

Step 6: Using a thin black liner, paint Captain Phasma’s mask. Then give the porg a mouth. Using a dotting tool add the eyes to BB-8 and the porg.

Step 7: Finish off with a matte top-coat.


Have a lovely week.

Scotland nail art

Image
Hi everyone, I went to Scotland in the summer holiday last year and as usual I did a country specific nail design. Step 1: Start by painting one nail red, one light blue, one dark blue and two white.  Step 2: Paint half of the light blue nail green. Then sponge on different greens, blues, and whites to add a natural feel. Step 3: Write Scotland on the dark blue nail. Step 4: Paint a blue thistle on the white nail. Step 5: Mix black and clear polish and paint the first two vertical stripes, use nail tape to make sure they are straight. Then add four black horizontal stripes and thereafter paint two white lines one vertical and one horizontal. Step 6: Now paint the Scottish cow using brown and beige. Step 7: Finish off with a top-coat. Have a lovely week.

Pink nail tape nail art

Hi everyone, I have continued to experiment with nail stickers. I started playing with nail tape as well and I think it turned out quite well. The only problem is that I can’t quite make the tape stick to my nails properly. Step 1: Paint all nails light pink, I used a Ciaté nail polish in the colour dollhouse. Step 2: Now place two pieces of pink nail tape on all nails. Personally, I think the horizontal lines worked best. Step 3: Finish off with a top-coat. I hope you have a lovely week
