Hey everyone!
So this is my (failed) attempt at watermelon nail art! My sister found a tutorial on YouTube for this but I'm not sure which one she picked...
I used: China Glaze Hey, Sailor!, China Glaze Entourage, Sally Hansen White On, Wet n Wild Black Creme, tape, a toothpick, and a heck a lot of patience! Hahaha :)
(I want to give credit where credit is due, so thank you Jamie [my sister] for dotting on the seeds and helping me not lose my mind :)
L to R: CG Hey, Sailor!, CG Entourage, SH White On, WnW Black Creme (I've finally started watermarking my pictures :)
I want to apologize for the messy application, and the fact that these look like pizza slices.
After my base coat, I started by painting one thick coat of White On. Once that tried, I taped off the sides and painted on a semi-thick layer of Hey, Sailor! (it's very opaque). Then, I freehanded the tips with Entourage and dotted the seeds on with a toothpick. Wait a while to top coat it so you don't smudge anything (like I did :) and voila! Watermelon nails!
This was actually my second attempt; my first attempt was full watermelons, not just slices.
Sorry for my gross dry hands! Hahaha
There you have it! The nail art that almost made me lose my mind :) it took me about an hour total, which is WAY longer than I ever want to spend on my nails!
Thanks for reading <3
