Ladylike Nail Art Tips From Blake Lively’s Manicurist
Posted in: Uncategorized  | Bye bye black nails and ballet slipper pink pedicures- those nail colors just seem plain old boring compared to these high impact nails! With Valentine’s Day coming up, you’ll want nails that are just as sexy as the dress you plan to wear on your date. Try some sexy peek-a-boo lace nails like Blake Lively and Jennifer Lopez. I got some tips from celeb manicurist Elle for Barielle (she did both Lively’s and Lopez’s nails) on an easy way to get the look. Start with dry, clean nails, and then brush on a coat of Gel Resin like IBD 5-Second Brush-on Gel Resin (available at most beauty supply stores). Attach a thin piece of lace (you can buy this from fabric stores) or get crafty by using scraps from an old vintage slip. Spray with Glue Dry (also available at beauty supply stores) and trim down the lace with a small pair of embroidery scissors. One last coat of Gel Resin and you lace manicure is ready to go and will last till your nails grown out or till you soak it in an acetone nail polish remover. To keep your lace mani looking fresh apply Barielle Intensive Nail Renewal Oil around cuticles daily. Will you be rocking the lace nails this Valentine’s Day? Tell us in comments! |
