4th of July Nails

Hey guys! So this is the tutorial I have been waiting for. This is my gradient red, white, and blue nail design for the 4^th of July. I’ve been seeing a lot of gradient nails this year and I thought this would fit the trends. 

The colors I used for this design were Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri “Rapid Red” (#280) and “Brisk Blue” (#430), Xtreme Wear “White On” (#300), Revlon ”Stunning” (#340), and Sally Hansen’s Base & Top Coat.

For this nail design, you will need a makeup sponge, preferably one with a wedge shape. You will start with a base coat in white and a clear coat on top of the white. This extra clear coat will keep your base on and make the polish extra smooth and easy to work on. Now you will paint your wedge with your red, white, and blue polishes. Pat the sponge on your nails, doing this a couple times to make the polish opaque. Clean around your nails, add your glitter, and you're done! This nails design is fun, easy, and very festive. You can change it to fit your liking and I know everyone will love it.

My very first nail tutorial was actually for the 4^th of July last year. I hope this one is even better than that one! Oh and just to clear things up, this is not my regular posting schedule. My regular day is Sunday and now I’m adding a post on Wednesday as well. That’s all for now, but I’ll see you on Sunday! BYYEEE
