Week #15: Newspaper Nails


 Newspaper stamped nails are a real classic! And the best is that it is quick and easy to make: Just apply two coats of base color (white and light grey are the most used), then wet your nails on alcohol (any kind of alcohol is ok as long as it is clear) for around 10 seconds. Once wet, press firmly a piece of newspaper (make sure it is a printed piece of newspaper) for almost half a minute without move it to then remove it slowly. After repeat the whole procedural on each nail, you need to apply a clear top coat and it is ready.

In this case I added an extra detail: I divided the nail with a perpendicular glittery line from one of the top side of the nail to the middle of the opposite side of the nail. then I painted the top part with a coat of silver nail polish.

that's all~
