Nailart: Fuzzy Nails

Today's nailart is commonly called Fuzzy Nails. These are really easy to do, all you need is some flocking powder!

It took me a really long time to find the flocking powder because not a single one of the craft stores here in my place carried them! I was sooo happy when I found them in a nail specialty store in APM. To be honest, they're a bit pricey. They cost 150 pesos for two tiny containers and a nail polish.

The first time I did these they came out a bit patchy (see red nails). They came out patchy because I used a polish that was a "watery" consistency. I find that creamy polishes work better with the flocking powder. Also, avoid using brand new polishes for these as they are almost always a bit more watery.

Nailart: Red Tribal Nailart

I did this design a while back when I was on the nailart challenge. The challenge for the day was to create a tribal design.

I'm not particularly fond of how this came out, I think that it's a bit messy because my red polish was a bit runny at that time but oh well!!

As always, start out with a base coat, I used L.A color's base coat.

For the white base, I used two coats of etude house's white polish in WH702.

After that dried, I used a toothpick to draw on the designs with a red nailpolish from L.A colors called Cranberry Red (NP142). It's a bit patchy because I mixed in too much nailpolish solvent into it. :(

After that dries, you can top it off with a top coat.

That's it! If you guys decide to try this out, please don't forget to show it to me!
