Lately, I have been seeing chain embellishments on nails more frequently and seeing I wanted to this new trend myself, what's better than Born Pretty Store for nail art supplies?!
I decided to try the 3mm silver chain which comes in a little resealable plastic bag. All the chains available on Born Pretty Store are 20cm in length (mine was actually a little longer) and you can choose from 8 varieties.
I thought it was going to be a little tricky to cut the chain to the desired size but a pair of scissors is really all you need! So after measuring your nail, cut the chain to the desired size and put in place over wet nail polish. Press it down gently and leave the polish to dry. You can apply top coat all over the chain or else just apply a little at the sides to keep it anchored.
Today is my fifth day wearing the same manicure and I have never had any issues with any of the chains coming off of nagging to clothes or anything and I think they give any manicure an edge with their 3D feel.

How did you do the base nail art? Was it the dry brush technique?
ReplyDeleteIt's actually quite easy...I painted a silver chrome base and let it dry then with a fan brush I went on to do a light grey colour on one side and a darker grey on the other :)

DeleteI need to try again with a fan brush then! :)
DeleteSuch a cool and edgy look! I was afraid to try it, I thought it would come off the same day.
ReplyDeleteIt is! And I was surprised that it held on for such a long time!
