This is the look that I decided on doing with Celtic sun. Let me warn you now to put on your sun glasses! 8)
I achieved this look by using 2 colors and saran wrap. I decided to use neon, but this saran wrap trick can be used with any colors that your heart desires. If you're interested in how I did this mani, keep on reading!
What you'll need:
Grab 2 colors of your choice. Here I have China Glaze- Purple Panic and China Glaze- Celtic Sun
You'll also need some saran wrap.
Step 1: Decide on which color you'd like to use as your base and paint that on every nail. I decided to use Celtic Sun as a base. (Tip: if you decide to use celtic sun as well, try painting on a coat of white underneath it. The formula is streaky and a white base would help.) Wait for your nails to dry completely.
Step 2: Rip off a piece of saran wrap and crumple it into a ball.
Step 3: Paint your second color onto the saran wrap. This is Purple Panic.
Step 4: Dab your saran wrap ball onto a piece of paper. This will let you know if you're happy with the design that is coming off of it, and it will also remove any excess polish-blobs that may be on the saran wrap.
Step 5: Dab your saran wrap ball onto your nail in a bouncing motion. You can do this as little or as much as you like. If you prefer more of the base coat to show, dab only a few times. If you prefer more of the pink to show, dab many times. The look is all personal preference.
Step 6: Clean up around the edges with a cotton swab. Add a top coat to protect your design and you're finished!
This is a fun and easy look that anyone can do! Hope you all enjoyed this tutorial! As always, if you have any comments/questions, feel free to let me know below!
Happy polishing!

I love your tutorials. Simple and pretty!
ReplyDeletethank you! :)
DeleteCan I ask if you use any kind of nail hardener
ReplyDeleteat the moment, no. I used to use a strengthener by Sally Hansen but I don't think it worked very well! I didn't ever see a difference.
