tutorial - easy 'space nails'

I kinda like them. just a ton. haha :) you can see i dented the 3rd finger pretty badly... oh well. Life goes on :)

so I just kind of felt like doing a tutorial... there really isn't a need for one, but you know why not?

these are the colors I used. I have NEVER payed over $2 for a bottle of nail polish, so ... yeah. I use NYC's $1 version :) and I find they actually work pretty well... the shimmery ones look really nice if you layer 2 similar colors. The one in the middle is some random thing I got a few years ago in one of those $5 big packages full of cruddy kid makeup. It was a gift haha :)

and then i used a mini glitter polish I've had since I was 4. Yes, 10 years. Haha :) oh, and for the record I do paint my nails very messily, and the excess washes off when you wash your hands... so I find that works better for me than missing some of the spots of my nails by my skin :)


awkward self pic :P haha
Someday I will get those little sponge thingies and do these... someday. {I'm a procrastinator... so maybe never.}

 So those were my little 'knock off' easy version of the beauties above :) They actually look much more 'deep' in real life. i like them :)

Thanks for reading!
