Oh My Gosh!!
Did you See Beyonce's nails at the Grammys???? SO HOT!
in case you haven't, you can check them out on All Lacquered Up's Blog Post. And if you're a nail design fan, you MUST follow her! She's great!!
So after seeing her blog post I immediatel had to try and recreate the gorgeousness of Beyonce's nails. (I will be recreating Keri Hilson's nails later :)
I used regular nail polish - not the fancy Minx that B had on her nails.
I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out!
And for reference, here are the colors I uses:
Sally Hansen - Silver Stiletto { base color over entire nail}
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Lime Lights {light green at base of nail}
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear - Mellow Yellow + any clear polish + OPI's Heart of Gold. [use a 1:2:1 ratio] applied with a thin paint brush on middle of nail
Lise Watier - Pearl givree {painted on tip} {this color is discontinued so use any light and sheet pink}
Re-apply the yellow mixture extending a bit into the green and pink to help smooth the fading effect.
And then a top coat of choice to blend out the colors
:D :D :D :D SO HAPPY WITH THE OUTCOME.
yes, i realize it doesn't look exactly like Beyonce's nails, but it captured the essence of the look that I was going for. :D
Here's the tutorial!
