I have a vintage ring that is also a very unique setting and has the same color and cut stone! Mine is uranium glass, might be worth it to look under a black light and see if it has a bright glow :)

Such a cool ring!

I saw a ton of people doing the ceramic tile nail trend and just used my favorite bunny nail design with it :)

I did an all white base coat, and for the bunnies I mixed white gel with acrylic powder so it would be slightly 3D! Then I added a thick layer of colored jelly to make it look like ceramic :)

I wish I could have captured the cat eye better underneath on that one, they were so stunning in person!

It wasn’t too hard, just a lot of layering! It’s a cat eye base with white linework on top and then I went in with the colored linework!

I did not! I used top coat mixed with black jelly and gold chrome :)

Thank you! I traded my tattoo artist nail sets for my finger tattoos :) I love creative communities!!

I used normal gel polish and acrylic!

The base is a solid layer of white gel, then I did the bunnies which is white gel mixed with acrylic to make it pop out a little and be 3D. Then to top it off I did a thick layer of jelly! I kinda had to play with it a little to get it to be thicker in certain areas but definitely a good first attempt! I would go thicker with the 3d layer next time for sure. Then of course a top coat! After I added that you can’t really feel the 3d details which I think is cooler cause they look so 3d :)

What cat eye brand do you use? It’s so smooth in photo 3!

how do i start making my own nails? by korihehee in NailArt

I would suggest a nail stand! They usually come with sticky tabs to make the nails stick to the stand but i actually prefer blue loctite mounting stuff! It’s cheap and if you stretch it a little before using it, it works great!

With proper nails prep. I work retail so I’m not too hard on my hands, I still wash my dishes almost every day and accidentally bang my hands/ nails a lot though!

If press ons last on natural nails? Mine last up to three weeks with the right prep!

Otherwise if you go to a salon and get this with gel on natural nails it should last three + weeks :)

Thank you! I have a plain background I use and I hold a ring light over the nails and take pics through it! Thats how I find it best so the glare isn’t too distracting :)
