Vodka Nails!

Posted by | |


First off let me just say I really don't like vodka but because I love all my followers and beauty enthusiast so, so much I went out and bought some so I could try this nail art trick out (you're welcome) 
Also I've decided to make all Tuesdays 'Nail Art Tuesdays', so check back every Tuesday for some nail art :)


It was my vey first time doing this- so it is a little messy 




What you will be needing :)

  • Vodka OR Rubbing Alcohol (Vodka is better because you can always make mixers afterwards ;) that and I couldn't find any rubbing alcohol)
  • A Base Coat (for protection)
  • A White Nail Polish such as Barry M's Matt White 
  • A Top Coat
  • A Newpaper (MayThe Metro - its FREE!!)
  • Cotton Buds 
  • Nail Polisher Remover 
  • Scissors 



What you need to do :)



Cut out pieces from a paper (the print that you want on your nails)

Prep your nails with a base coat
Sally Hansen Double Duty
Paint your nails white
WAIT FOR NAILS TO DRY 
(sorry I forget to do a pic - just know I painted them white :))

Now that your nails are dry dip one finger in some vodka 


Take your finger out a place one of the snippets on top of your nail (if needed you could use a cotton bud to rub on a little more vodka)
Press down HARD for about 10 - 15 second
Then peel away 



Apply Topcoat (it will seal in the ink from the magazine and stop ya nails from chipping)


Repeat this process for the rest of nails 

Lastly admire your newspaper nails (perhaps celebrate with a shot!)


And there you have it, isn't it cute? :) Your nails are your own personal news paper 

FYI, If i can do this, trust me when I say you can too
