For this, i used a number of nail polish colours hoping to attain a cosmic effect. I first applied a single coat of black nail polish (Dodwell Nail enamel #79), Then sponged on the following colours: Luron #108 (green), Charm Max Blue, Luron #109 (hot pink) and finally Luron #FT201 (white) in that particular order.
After i was done with the sponging step, i drew some white stars on my accent nails (which you can't see very well here) then applied a coat of fine glitter nail polish and sealed everything with a top coat. The mani may not look like much till you add glitter (and look at it from a distance).
NB: I went overboard with the glitter. I think it would have looked more realistic if i had not used it on the sponged areas. Also adding just one holographic nail polish to the mix is an awesome idea especially if your going to be out in the sun.
There are so many variations of this spacey-mani using other different colour combinations so you can be sure i'll do it again.
This turned out so cool. It actually looks spacey,.galaxyish! Its hard to believe that hot pink was in the mix though!
ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole! I guess i didn't use enough of the pink lol! But the mani had some kind of warm colour-reddish-pink undertone in the end.
