China Glaze Secret Periwink-le by Glitta Gloves, on Flickr
Lace Manicure DIY Ingredients:
- 1/2 Yard Lace From A Ribbon Spool
- A Base Coat
- A Base Color
- Non-Permanent Glue
- Thick Clear Top Coat
- A Toothpick
- Wax Paper
To recreate this look, first prep your nails with a base coat and a base color because this DIY does involve glue and you do not want to glue lace directly to your nails.
Next, lay the lace over a nail and with a pair of small scissors, we used eyebrow scissors, cut the lace to the size of your nail. You will want the lace to be slightly shorter than the length of your nails – it is very important that it does not extend beyond your nail, else you will not be able to seal it with the top coat. Lay a piece of lace on wax paper, coat the back side with glue using a toothpick, and place the lace on your nail pressing the sides down with the toothpick.Repeat the trim and glue process for your remaining nails.
Finish the manicure with a couple of applications of a very thick clear top coat until the edges are sealed and the nail is smooth to the touch.
same as yesterday, but added more bigger gold flakes :)
to those who care, this is OPI’s “Princess rule” pink glitter coat, topped with OPI Sephora’s “Only Gold for Me top coat”. then Erikonail’s glitter gold on top with layer of OPI’s clear top coat :P
