Hello again!
For my first beauty related post I decided to do a nail tutorial! This nail tutorial is super basic, I am sure everyone knows how to paint their nails! The reason I decided to start off with such a boring and basic tutorial is so that I can get used to the formatting and get the hang of this whole blogging thing. So just please, stick with me as I get used to everything. I promise much more interesting posts in the future! So, lets get started!
You are going to want to start off with clean nails and file
them to the length & shape you like. My nails are looking really
yellow in this picture- probably because I left the same polish
on them for 2 weeks! Whoops... haha!
Next, you should add a base coat. Adding a base coat will
prevent staining and will also help your polish apply
more smoothly and prevent chipping. The base coat
that I used is OPI Natural Nail Base Coat. I really like
this base coat because it dries quickly and helps with chipping.
Next apply your polish. The polish I am using is China Glaze Velvet Bow.
I really like this color because it is a dark color but you can
obviously tell it is not black and that it is a deep red. In real life
this color is much darker than it appears in the pictures. The pictures show
the first, second, and third coats. The third picture still looks a bit
streaky but in person it does not appear that way. Make sure when you are
painting your nails that you always wrap the tips- paint polish on the edge of your
nails! This will make your manicure last much longer by preventing chipping.
Lastly, apply your top coat! The top coat I used is OPI Top Coat.
I love this top coat because it adds a really pretty shine that looks
like you just walked out of the salon! I personally like to add a thick layer
of top coat, but you can do whatever you prefer! Top coat helps to add shine
and prevent chipping for a longer lasting manicure!
And here is the final product! A very beautiful, long lasting manicure!
I cant wait to get into the swing of things and be a regular blogger! I know this was really basic and boring, but I promise to come out with more exciting blog posts very soon! I think my next blog will be a review of some sort of beauty item. Please leave any requests below! Thank you for visiting the blog and hope to see you soon! Watch out for the next post!
I hope you all have a very wonderful day!
