It's too cold outside- snowflake nail design

Hello everyone! Hope everyone is enjoying this super cold winter, just kidding! It has been way too cold this winter in the USA, even in the states that usually are not that cold, they are even having cold weather. I know where I live it has been way too cold and snowy and I am just ready for at least Spring time. Anyway we all may be tired of the winter weather, but why not have a pretty snowflake design on our nails, to somewhat enjoy the winter.

Apply a base coat to clean dry nails.

Let that dry.

Polish all of your nails with a shimmery blue (Zoya- Estelle.)

Let that dry.

Glitter Gradient on all of the Nails: 

First we will start off with a glitter gradient on all of the nails. Take a scattered holographic polish and polish a little bit on the tips of the nails. Now take a makeup sponge with the same glitter polish that you just used and apply some to the sponge, dab the sponge on to the tips of the nails, I did this two times over all the nails to have enough glitter. Then I usually with the polish brush will apply anther thin layer over the tip of the nails, to smooth out what we just sponged on.

Snowflakes:

For the Snowflake we will mainly be focusing near the tips of the nails. To make a snowflake take a thin striper brush with white paint on it and make a cross shape, then an X shape through that. On every line make two to three very small lines. Then to finish off your snowflake, make a very small dot on the very end of each line. 

For even more snow, take a dotting tool with a sliver holographic polish on it and dab the dotting tool on the random blank areas of the nail. 

On all of the nail you can do different amounts of snowflakes depending on your nail length. Some nails I did two snowflakes, some three and some just a half snowflake.

Once your nails match the outside, apply a top coat to seal in your design and to help it last thought all the winter weather.

Hope all of you have enjoyed this winter snowflake nail design!

See you next time for more nail fun!
