Day 19: Galaxy Nails

My favourite! I have always been fascinated with space- probably thanks to my Pop :) I remember the first time I saw galaxy nails and I couldn't wait to try them out.

The biggest part of any galaxy design is the layering. It gives dimension, and you can achieve beautiful colour combinations. These nails started with a black base- China Glaze "Liquid Leather". I then used sponges to apply the colours. I used China Glaze "Grape Pop", "Ruby Pumps", "Adore". I think I used a Kleancolour green, and Jezy "Peacock Blue", but I'm not 100%. I used Chi Chi white to highlight particular areas, and to add the "stars". On my right hand I painted some areas with Ulta "Confetti" to add a bit more sparkle.





What do you think? I know that there are a lot of galaxy designs out there, but honestly they are so simple to achieve- give it a shot!
