Galaxy Nail Tutorial :)








YAY! Galaxy nails! I love everything galaxy, so when I heard about galaxy nails, I watched like every tutorial on Youtube, although it's more or less the same thing. You'll need:

  1. Black/Dark Blue nail polish
  2. White/Silver nail polish
  3. About 3 more nail polish with the colour of your choice
  4. Nail Polish with micro-glitter OR Clear top coat
  5. Make up sponge
  6. Toothpick
Not that many things right? Okay, not really, but it's worth it! (;

Okay, so first, paint your nails black or dark blue.



Next, using a make up sponge, gently apply the white or silver polish diagonally across your nail. Ensure that it's spread out, the colour being most concentrated in the middle and slowly fading out, and that the base colour applied can still be seen towards the outer corners and the faded white/silver areas.



Use the same technique, do the same for the other colours of your choice, applying it around the faded areas of white/silver, not in the centre of the 'concentrated' colour.





If you'd like, use a toothpick to add small white/silver dots to represent stars. Finish off with nail polish with tiny micro-glitter for a more galaxy feel, or a clear top coat if you prefer.
