Pink Ikat Nails

Hello again!
 
I apologize for my lack of posts lately, but with the semester winding down I've been swamped! I just turned in my last big project today so now I just have a presentation tomorrow and exams on Wednesday and Thursday! On top of all of this, my laptop has a virus and I am now unable to use it!
 
With all of this going on, I haven't been able t paint my nails much. Though I have managed to finger knit a blanket and hat for a very special baby named Brielle, you can read about her and her family here.
 
Now, on to the tutorial! I did these nails quite a while ago and they are the oldest draft I have sitting in my posts.
 

What you need:

After applying your base coat and allowing it to dry, paint your ring finger with your glitter polish, your thumb white, and the other 3 fingers pink.


Paint a layer of gelous over top of this first layer once it dries.
 
After your gelous is dry, apply another coat to all of the nails.


Once your thumb is dry, paint 2 shapes similar to a triangle on your thumb.


now, with your detail brush, paint ragged triangular lines around these 2 shapes.


Now, apply some black strokes in the center of the triangle.


Once that has dried, apply a coat of top coat and then top it off with a coat of Gelous!


I hope you all enjoy this manicure as much as I did! I hope t be back on a regular posting  schedule soon!
