Creative French Tips!

I got sick of looking at my 'nature' nails, so I quickly repainted my nails last night. This time however, I decided to go with a creative french tip.

My base color is ELF's "Innocent" polish, and my french tips are ELF's "Lilac" Polish!

I'm pretty sure I don't need to provide you all with the tips, since you all probably know how to do this simple design.

Nail Design Of The Week

This weeks design didn't turn out as well as I wanted it to, but then again practice makes perfect! I was trying to go for that whole nature/trees esque type of thing, but my branches didn't turn out that well. Anywho, doing this design is not that easy as you can tell. I'll definitely give it another shot within the next few weeks!

Step 1: Apply base coat

Step 2: Rip off a piece of tape, and place it diagonally on your nail, making it cover one half of the nail.

Step 3: On the side of the nail that isn't covered by the tape, simply paint it any color of your choice

Step 4: Once that polish has dried, gently remove the tape. Then paint the other side of your nail a different color of your choice

Step 5: Get a nail striper  (if you don't have a striper, cut one of your old nail polish brushes in half, or use a toothpick) and paint a diagonal line where your two colors meet up.

Step 6: Paint tiny little branches

Step 7: Finish it off with some top coat

Nail Design: 2 tone Purple

This week's nail design was uber simple, yet also very cute! I went for a two tone look, in other words I picked two polishes of the same color...just in different shades. For example, in the picture above I painted the top of my nails dark purple (ELF nail polish) and the bottom a light "gumdrop" color (Revlon).

Anyway, until next week's nail design.

PS: Happy Valentines day

Hooray for Cakepops!
