Acid Pink
These are FUNKY! There just so cool, with the jagged hot pink tips! And dead easy to do…
So these don’t have that much to do with acid, name just seemed appropriate.. Would work brilliantly with any neon colour.
- Paint all pales a thin coat of the more natural-nail colour you can find
- Wait for them to fully dry (use seche vite if possible)
- Cut out loads of tiny triangles from scotch tape (stick to your hand first if it’s too sticky for nails)
- Place at the base of your nail pointing down, overlapping
- Paint tip in a bright colour
- Remove all tape from nail at once if possible (especially when they are overlapping!)
- Topcoat and ROCK IT!
The idea here came from nailside, who did a slightly more sophisticated (work-appropriate?) nude + blue ‘crown’ version:
This is a great look. i love anything that deviates from the more traditional french tip!
The french tip is a classic, but for younger people especially making it more unique/original is really cool 🙂
I seriously love this! I just painted my nails for the night now I’m tempted to try this over then top. Very cool! 🙂
Thanks! They do look reaalllly good 🙂
I just had a fantastic idea, how great would it look if you were able to layer the triangles bit by bit to make a rainbow going up the nail! 😀
Wow, that would take forever but would look amazing! (would definately need the seche vite!) Like a spikey rainbow circus type nail… Will definately give this a try, if you give it a go pleas let me see! 🙂
Haha, you are definitely right that would take forever. I will tag you if I ever get brave enough to do it 😀
Also I need to check out this seche vite I keep hearing about!
