Roses on a Budgets (Nail Art Junkie Edition)


Many of you may know that nail art is becoming a trend. There are more and more shows about nails and even more techniques popping up.
For a nail enthusiast like myself it could become extremely diffcult to keep up with these trends without breaking the bank and sometimes waiting forever for those packages from over seas to arrive with those rhinestones and studs you've been dying to try is just to much.
What if I told you guys that there was a site where nail art trends are just $1 dollar each.  They carry studs, pearls,  chunky glitter, laser wire, foil, and so much more.
I was so thrilled to have found this site www.dollarnailart.com (the name says it all)  it's any nail geeks dream site.

Instructions/Ideas

Chunky Glitters: 

  • Chunky glitters are very versatile you can layer them over a thin layer of acrylic then encapsulate them with clear acrylic and top coat them with gel or top coat for a glassy design.
  • Add them in glitter mixes to use with acrylic or gel
  • Add a few pieces over your painted nails for at extra pop
  • Cover your whole nail with it over your top coat

Studs:

  • Studs can be used for an edgy look on your nails you can arrange them in many different ways over gel or nail glue to make your manicure look like your a rock star.

Laser Wire:

  • This is one of those things that really look amazing encapsulate in gel or acrylic. If you not in to those products you can get away with placing them on tacky nail polish/nail glue and coat them with a thick top coat. (Looks like a science project on your hands)

Nail Foil:

  • This is one of those nail art things that saves you a lot of work but still looks amazing. All you have to do is apply the glue, it would be milky but wait until it turns clear. Press on the foil quickly then pull is up for cool effects. Top with clear top coat/gel top coat for shine and protection.

Here are some of the things I got from them:
Studs!
Sequins or Chunky Glitter
Stars or Chunky Glitter
A lot of studs and Chunky Glitter
  
Nail Foil
  It really doesn't have to be costly for your nails to look amazing!
Here are some rough designs I came up with:
Ice Box Heart
I encapsulated blue sequins and hearts in gel
toping it with a clear heart 3d nail piece.

Gold Tribal
I placed a stripe of foil gel down the middle.
Add the nail foil.
Encapsulated with gel
Added a few rhinestones

Black Glass
I add black sequins, squares, and stars
encapsulating with clear acrylic
