Galaxy Far Away- Galaxy Nail Design

Hello everyone! Today I kind of wanted to recreate a design that I have done before, but change it up a little,that design is the galaxy design. I have been wanting to recreate this design on it's own for a while now, and I final got a chance to do it. I did a similar design like this one, it was a Star Wars design that had a galaxy design in it. For this design it will just be the galaxy no Star Wars, but if you would like to incorporate that in this design for the new movie you can do as well.

Also here is the link to my Star Wars Galaxy design May force be with you- Star Wars Nail Design     

Here is the polishes and nail art tools used for this galaxy design, for this recreation I did use some different and some of the same polishes:

  

Base and Top coat- CND Stickey Base Coat and Revlon Extra Life No Chip top coat.

Nail Polishes- Sally Hansen- Hard as Nails- Black Heart, Zoya- Urban Grunge- Alicia (used on left hand), OPI Holiday 2017- Ornament to Be Together (used on right hand), Zoya- Dream, Zoya- Urban Grunge- Finley, and Cover Girl- Boundless color- Disco dazzle.    

Acrylic paint- white

Nail art tools- Small dotting tool, very small detail brush, makeup sponge  

Other- small cup or jar with water in it to clean of brushes  

Let's start this out of this world nail design!

Start off with a thin layer of base coat.

As soon as that is dry on all of your finger except your ring finger nail, polish your nails black, then the ring finger nail, polish that with a holo blue polish. On my right hand I polished the ring finger nail with a purple holo polish.   

Once again let that dry, On our thumb, index, middle, and pinky finger nails we will be creating a galaxy. For this you will need a makeup sponge, I cut my sponge into small pieces for this step.

Take a silver holo polish for my left hand I used Zoya- Alicia and my right hand I used OPI- Ornament to Be Together. (This is optional because in the end you really can't tell the different.) Take one of these silver holo polishes, polish it on the sponge then in any random spots sponge on the polish. For example on the middle finger I sponge the silver in the middle and a little on the tip of my nail on the corner. 

Next take another small piece of sponge polish that with the blue holo polish and sponge that on to one of the sides of the silver. For the purple do the same thing but on the other side of the silver.

For each nail it is best to sponge on the polish in a different spot, that way each nail looks different.

Once that has dried, take a glitter polish that has small and big glitter pieces and polish that on all of your galaxy nails. This will represent some stars.

For the final touch we will paint some stars on to the nails. Take your very small brush with white paint on it and make a few random X's on the nails, not to many, at most I did three to four little X's for stars. Then take a very small dotting tool and make some random dots as well, making sure not to make to many.

Once you have your galaxy design the way you liked, apply a top coat to all of your nails to help protect your nails and make your galaxy nice and shinny.

Hope all of you enjoyed this galaxy nail design!

See you next time for more nail fun!
