4th of July Nails

4th of July is coming up so here's some nails to go with it(:

First you'll need a base coat, red, navy blue thin tip, white thin tip, silver sparkle thin tip, and a top coat polish. I also used a hardener, but it isn't necessary.


Apply a coat of hardener first, if you have it, then 1-2 coats of base coat. The base coat gives a smoother surface to paint on and hardener, well, hardens nails. Then completely coat your nails in a solid red.


Taking the navy blue thin tip (also called a design brush), put a thin vertical stripe right down the middle of each nail.


Time for stripes :D Use the white thin tip. You can put as many as you want, but I had four on each side of the blue. Have each one going diagonally, parallel to each other. This is the longest step, going slow and careful.


Using the silver sparkle thin tip, add a silver stripe on either side of each blue stripe.


Add one to two layers of top coat and your're done. Happy 4th of July :D

All opinions are welcome, just try not to be too harsh with me :) It's cool if you don't like something, we aren't the same. But nobody likes a hater :)
