Independence Day Nail Art!

As today is the 4^th of July ‘Independence day', I wanted to share with you this really easy Nail Art Tutorial so that you can get in the mood for Independence Day celebrations even if your American or not.  So here’s what you’re going to need to achieve this look…

White Shaded Nail Polish (I’m using a cheap polish from a set)

Red Shaded Nail Polish (Bourjois Paris No Chips)

Blue Shaded Nail Polish (Essence Colour & Go no76 Hard to Resist)

Glittery Shaded Nail Polish (Peace Keeper ‘Paint me Luminous) (optional)

 

Step 1 If you have an previous nail polish on your nails remove with nail remover or use a clear base coated nail polish.

 

Step 2 Apply white nail polish and give around 2 coats.  Then leave to dry.

 

 

Step 3 After letting my nails dry, I decided to apply a glitter polish just to give my nails a bit of a sparkle effect, this is optional. Then leave to dry.

 

Step 4 Next use a red polish and apply 2 red stripes to either side of your nails. Then leave to dry.

 

Step 5 Then take your blue polish and drag the brush across the tip of your nail (half way). Then leave to dry.

 

Step 6 Finally if you do have any Nail Art ‘Stars’ then apply to the tip part of your nails, or if you’re like me I had to improvise and create dots at the tip of my nails which worked out quite well.

 

 

and your done...
