DIY MC nails!

Did you like MC's nails? Did you know these are easy to DIY???

What you'll need:

Nail polishes in light and darker blue, + a holographic/iridescent top coat (No quick dry; I've tried this with the instant dry and the struggle and pain I suffered.... I'm so sorry. This only really works with regular polishes!)

A clear top coat + your favorite base coat

School glue (I'm so dead serious yes liquid kids school glue, the non-toxic kind)

A disposable foam makeup sponge or an old beauty blender you were about to get rid of

Tweezers

Here's the finished result!

Tutorial with Pics:

Ok for people who want to know exactly what I used:

Dark blue = "To Me From Me" (#735) by Essie

Light blue = some kind of light cornflower blue cheap polish by Elle I bought for pennies at freakin' TJ Maxx 💀 (you do not have to spend on this I promise) just try to color match as close as possible!

Holographic Top Coat = "Ethereal Escape" (#30) by Essie's Special Effect [I might also recommend "Iris Illusion" (#546) by Sally Hansen, it's an extremely close second but a little more chrome than sparkle - which may be desirable!] Basically if you look at the reference photo, there's an everrrr so slight purple sheen to it. Like, very iridescent. You want something not "glittery" just enough that when the sun hits it, you get a subtle purple shimmer!

Clear Top Coat = I swear by Olive & June's Quick Dry Top Coat ("But Madi you said no quick dry!!" I KNOW BUT THIS IS THE TIP TOP IT'S DIFFERENT)

Step 1:

Grab your favorite base coat (everyone's needs are different, mine is to remedy my peeling nails sobbb). Slather her on and while you wait,

Apply a thin rim of school glue around your nails. Hang with me a minute.

It should be a thin coat, if it's too thick it'll take forever to dry. You can adjust it with your finger if it's too thick? it's fine.

For you nosy guppies, we do this to protect our skin and our sanity later. Now shush.

Step 2:

Wait for the glue to fully dry. Like there should be no more white. You'll see in the next pic you can no longer see the glue.

Step 3:

Grab a makeup sponge - you'll only need 1! (those cheap white ones they sell in a big bag in the beauty section; OR if you're like me and couldn't be bothered, cut up an old beauty blender you're about to get rid of. Then you'll be able to save the other pieces for another time!)

Apply a thin line of light blue polish on the bottom, then a thinner line of the darker blue above it.

Step 4:

Gently stamp the colors onto the nail, it'll look like this and it'll be a mess but that's what the glue's for.

Do this for all your nails.

Step 6:

Wait a minute and apply a second "coat," so more stamping.

"But Madi! It looks bumpy!!" It's fine I promise 😭

Step 7:

Give it another minute, then apply your iridescent coat.

Omg look all the "bumpiness" was smoothed out!

Step 8:

Apply your top coat ✨

Step 9:

Grab your tweezers and you can start to pick that dried glue off. Wow no more mess! It's so easy!!!

Here i saved you a bit of glue.

Seriously it's so satisfying.

(Don't @ me about the dust ok i legit vacuumed and dusted 2 days ago but I've been leaving my window open a ton tyvm!!!)

AND YOU'RE DONE!!

Not what I usually post but I do my own nails and this is my current set on my right hand. (Inspired by a set I saw on Pinterest) I really love them.
