Sleeping wonder lies to me, and the lies are sweet.


Hey guys! I've been thinking about getting into nail art (for fun). I've been painting my own nails for years, and I've got a few tricks and stuff for painting my right hand, and I think I'm ready for some new stuff. I'm gonna try out water marbling tonight, but I really wanna start doing patterns and stuff (aside from using Shatter nailpolish). Any nail artists with some tricks and tips for a newbie?

I don't have any of my own, but check out these youtube channels. They do some pretty cool looking nail art tutorials that may help you out. ^^

You may have to filter through their video lists a little, but I think it would be worth it just to see if they have something to help. =)

This is exactly the sort of stuff I've been looking into! I know basics for make-up art, but I haven't experimented much (except tonight and a few other times in the past year) mostly because I never have anybody but myself to work on...

Thank you so much! <3

Well, try some basic patterns e.g. Stripes or Polka dots. If you're already confident, I suggest trying a design my friend once tried. It's a watermelon design, basically painting your nails red, painting the tips green and optionally adding the 'seeds' (black dots of nail polish). heart
