Good morning daisies!
Estava lendo ontem a pesquisa que fiz aqui pro blog e vi que uma das sugestões foi mais tutoriais, mais passo a passo, incluindo objetos que usamos diariamente. Para a lindona que deixou essa sugestão, muito obrigada pela atenção e interesse. Como você pode ver, estou fazendo tutoriais desde fevereiro, mas infelizmente não uso outros objetos que não sejam específicos para nail art, exceto as esponjas de maquiagem para fazer gradientes. Mas se você quiser ver tutoriais com outros materiais, tem milhares de vídeos no YouTube. ;-) Aqui o post original dessa mani.
I was reading the answers to the questionnaire I made (in Portuguese) and saw that one of the suggestions was to make more tutorials, including objects we use on a daily basis. Unfortunately I don't use regular objects, all my material is specifically for nail art, except the makeup sponges to make gradients. But if you want to see tutorials using other accessories, there are tons of them on YouTube. ;-) Here's the original post for this mani.
Essa mani é uma das técnicas que eu mais gosto e uma das mais fáceis de fazer também. Comece com duas camadas do esmalte de sua escolha. Eu usei o Push and Shove da O.P.I. Depois que a cor de base estiver bem seca, posicione a primeira fitinha na diagonal sobre a unha e pressione bem os cantinhos para não levantarem.
This mani is one of the techniques I love the most and one of the easiest to make. Start off with two coats of a polish of your choice. I chose Push and Shove by O.P.I. Make sure your base colour is completely dry and then position the first tape diagonally on the nail and press on the sides so they won't lift.
Then put the second tape on the opposite side, making an X centred on the top part of the nail.
Put the third tape parallel to the first one.
And the last one on the other side.
Layer a very generous coat of the polish of your choice. I picked Live, Love, Carnaval by O.P.I.
Take off the tapes right away, while the polish is still wet so it won't drag. If you wait for the polish to dry and then take off the tapes, they will pull the polish and it looks awful.
Try to remember the order you positioned the tapes so you don't make a mess when removing them.
Pull them up on the opposite direction, from the last to the first one you put on.
Put a stud in the diamond shape created in the middle and seal the design with top coat.
Don't forget tuo use the hashtag #lookgionails if you use my tutorials or if you get inspired by one of my manis. I'll be featuring the manis on my Instagram ---> follow me there @Gio_Nails.
Big kiss and see you tomorrow.
