The tutorial goes along with a manicure that I posted yesterday inspired by the InDecisive Lacquer polish and name Sparkly Vampire. I keep thinking a vampire would love a mani like this! Or maybe it is just because the tips remind me of fangs! Who knows, but I really enjoyed wearing this and I hope you enjoy this tutorial...
Supplies used:
- Polishes: InDecisive Lacquer Sparkly Vampire, SinfulColors Black on Black
- Red hex glitter (mine is from the Born Pretty Store, part of a set. Item #3103)
Instructions:
- Apply desired number of coats of your red polish. Here I used 2 coats of InDecsive Lacquer Sparkly Vampire.
- Paint a corner of the nail using black. Depending on the length of your nails and how steep you want the final point to be, start at the edge of your nail and swipe toward the center of the tip. Don't worry if the line is not perfect since you will be covering it with glitter!
- You can do this using either the polish brush or a detail brush for more control.
- Additionally try marking a dot on the side and the tip of the nail to help guide if necessary.
- Repeat step #2 and paint the second corner of the nail. Again don't worry about making this perfect since you will be covering it up with glitter.
- Apply a coat of clear polish (to adhere the glitter) and arrange the red glitter along the edge between black and red polish as shown above, to create a glitter chevron.
- Seal with a top coat and enjoy!
Thanks for looking!
