step by step manicure that lasts

Here is a quick tutorial on how you can make a longer lasting cute manicure:

Here is my nails at the start, it is important that you take care of your nails and use oils before bed and softly pull down your cuticles :) but remember, no oil before nailpolish! then it will not stick:



I start out with a polish that hardens the nail, to have a hard clear base, with Depend Powerflex Nail Strengthener :




After that I use a very soft pink, not too strong color, natural:


After this I paint the tips white with a acrylic polish and a thin brush, you don´t have to be so extremely worried about painting outside the nail, just be studious about covering the whole tip from side to side and along the lower end of the tip be sure to make an arc:


Next I used the same natural pink as before to make the nail more pink and the white less white, plus i painted a simple flower at the corner of each nail:


And done! Hope you found out something useful!

Summer break

Hey guys, I have sort of had a summer break from all sorts of computers, that is why I have not written for very long, but now I can upload a few different nail styles that i have made during the summer, here comes the latest, I tried making my own Gel nails at home using Depend GeléKit that I bought in a supermarket (!), for only 74.- since I split the kit with my friend Linnea.

This is how they looked when I put on the tips:

horrible, I know, But fun!

And here is the final design, some glitter! so not me but pretty ;)


What do you think? :D
