DIY Nail Art How-To : Painting on False Soft Nails? Tack IT!

February 24th, 2009 | Category: Makeup Mania, Nail Art Series

In response to Prettybeautiful’s question, 

hi, i js realized i have a big big big Q.

  1. how to paint on fake nails??? HELLLPPPP

  2. the soft tips keep moving around, how do i secure them in one place to paint them?

Here’s my answer.

Those darn little plastics love to move around right?

Soft false nails come in packages like these.

Tack IT! :D

Eeeew @ the dirt under my nails. *Blush*

They cost a few ringgit nia and come in abundance. ;)

Faber Castell FTW.

And I tack ‘em on my poor office stationery that resembles anything that you can hold comfortably in your hand and move around, makes it easier to paint and move it to dry!

My poor glue bottles looks like batang, so I choose them to be my victims.

See? Can hold, and paint! Then you can move it shake it fling it position it without ruining your art work! :D

And that’s it. Bear in mind this is a layman method coming out from a siao chabor, so for those who have had formal training on nail art, please pardon my noobish-ness. 

Hope that helped you, Prettybeautiful dear! :D
