So if you guys seen the Sex and the City 2 movie, and your a nail addict, then you wouldn't miss out the part when the girls were on the poolside and Samantha pulled out her phone and BOOOMM! THE NAILS!! Honestly i did fell in love with her nails!! So i went on the internet to look for pictures and saw a tutorial by a youtube star - JULIE- who is also one of my favorites. She did a tutorial on this and i want to make one too with a little add-ons and changes. So enough with this mumbling and let's get started!!
First the things you'll need/ i used:
![]() | |
Nail art tools bought this from Landmark (comment if you have questions! | ) |
![]() |
Dotting tool & Thin brushed tool |
![]() |
a solid blue matte color, green shimmery color, mustard gold color |
![]() |
Rhinestones |
AND LET'S START!
* Start of with a base color so you have a thin layer that separated your nail from possible harmful chemicals of a nail polish and so that your nail color wont chip fast. :)
*Then apply your blue color. You don't have to be neat yet because you can remove excess polish later on.
*Then make a cross on your nails using the green color.
*Then it's time to apply your rhinestones. The trick is that you know how to play with your stones. You can apply it in different ways like this.

slightly wet the tip of toothpick and the rhinestone will stick to it. use it to pick up the stone and decorate! |

draw on spirals/ C shapes like this |
*To create something like this. Always start from the stones, going out, create your spiral/ C shape using the gold tone.
*Then take a few of your circle rhinestones and apply at least two all over the nails and using a dotting tool put dots around especially on spaces.

*Then wait for about 20 minutes before applying top coat, apply a generous amount especially on top of the rhinestones to avoid fall outs. Don't forget to clean the sides by using a cotton bud with acetone.
*And here's the finish product!!
Hope you guys liked it! Don't forget to leave a comment of what you think!
