Who has been to a moonlight cinema before? Watching a movie under the stars is Pretty
Romantic right. Well In this week's video, I'll be showing you 2 ways of capturing
the cinemagic on your nails. I alternated the design with an open curtain
and a closed curtain version. If you like this Design please rate and favourite this
video. As always, start with base coat and base color and let it completely dry before
moving on. This next step is completely optional but
if you want to achieve super straight lines, you can give this method a try, instead of
using the striper brush and adding them in freehand. So we're going to use some striping
tape and cut them into smaller sections. Get a few strips ready before applying them onto
the nail. Using a finger to help hold down the tape, make any adjustments if needed and
line them on the nail leaving even gaps in between.
Then apply a black nail polish all over the nail and quickly peel the strips off to get
the super straight line effect. If the lines didn't come out as clean, you can go over
with the base colour to cover any spots. Although your still using the striping brush, its a
lot easier to fix up certain areas than creating super straight lines using only the striper.
Next I'm just using the brush that came with the black nail polish to section off
the tip of the nail with 3 curved bumps. So Start small and build towards the shape that
you want. Then use a thin brush to line the curved tips.
Now for the Open Curtain design. I'm just going to use the striper brush. Draw 2 curved
lines towards the top of the nail and color in the tip. Add 3 lines on either side to
represent the curtains, then line the tip edge with a white striper brush. Now use a
dotting tool to add polka dots to the Special shaped French tip and do the same for the
remaining nails
Using the Moon and Star shaped Nail Stickers available at Meliney.com start placing them
onto the nail. If you put it in the center of the nail, it will look like it's the
star of the show. And if you don't want to get the sticker's, you can totally draw
in the star and moon shapes instead with a detail brush. Once your done, Add top coat
to secure the decals and presto. If you like this design, feel free to share this video
