Here is everything I used!

piCture pOlish Blogfest2013 Tutorial




  • Step 1 -
    Start with nail strengthener and base coat. I used Nailtek II and Orly Bonder.
    Then apply your base colors. I used Honey Dew on my ring & thumb nails.
    I applied a white base to my pointer, Hot Lips on my middle nail, and Heavy Metal on my pinky nail.
  • Step 2 -  
    Frame your pinky nail using Hot Lips and a small nail art brush.
    Draw a X shape on your ring nail using Hot Lips, then fill in the sides.
    Draw a triangle on your middle nail using Honey Dew.
  • Step 3 -
    Reapply Hot Lips to your "framed" pinky nail and the sides of the X on your ring nail for opacity.
    Using a small nail art brush and Heavy Metal, fill in the triangle areas on your middle & ring nails.
  • Step 4 - 
    Apply Honey Dew and Hot Lips to a wedge makeup sponge and apply to your white pointer nail.
    Repeat this process 3-5 times until your desired look is acquired!
  • Step 5 -
    Using top coat and a wax pencil (or whatever you use to pick up studs and rhinestones)
    pick up the studs one at a time and apply to your pinky and ring finger nails.
    I used a 2mm circle neon pink stud on my pinky nail and a 2mm black square stud on my ring nail.
  • Step 6 - 
    Use a small clean portion of the same wedge sponge you used above and dab Heavy Metal
    onto your thumb nail. Once dry apply topcoat to all of your nails and you are good to go!
