Galaxy Nails are out of this world!

Hey guys :) This weeks challenge with PaA was galaxy nails, I wasn't planning on doing it at first, then I got inspired by this picture, beautiful right? and so after dinner, and during the VMAs I did my mani :)

It really isn't very hard, it's just a lot of steps! You need all the polishes you plan on working with, a nail art brush/toothpick and a cosmetic sponge and you are set!

I used a bunch of different colors, my base is Sinful Colors whats your name (it's black with a purple/blue very tiny glass fleck in it) then I sponged on Finger Paints paper mache, then sponged on Kleancolor lavenbaby, then sponged on Kleancolor catch me, more sponging with Funky Fingers melted popsicle, then I used my nail art brush with Orly star of bombay to help clean up the swirled galaxys on my ring fingers, then I used a nail art brush to add "stars" some big and some small on each finger, I then used some OPI DS shimmer in certain areas to give a little glitz, and added a little bit of Sally Hansen x-treme wear disco ball in certain areas too. Finished all off with a coat of SV and I was done! It took me a little over an hour total, but I am in LOVE with the finished product!!




Close up of the Sinful Colors, you can't see the purple in the picture but it's there :)




I blurred the second picture so you could see the holographic effect from the glitter and the OPI DS shimmer, I am seriously in love!! It came out way better than I had expected and I'm going to keep it on as long as I can before going insane ;)

What do you think of it?

Until next time! Happy painting! :D
