  • How to paint patterned nail art. Diy: Galaxy Nails - Step 1
    Step 1

    Nail polishes used: (L-R) Caronia Nail Hardener & Base Coat; The Face Shop nail color BL604; Caronia Black Velvet Regular; Caronia Dare Frosted; Caronia Bliss Frosted; Caronia Platinum Special Frosted; Caronia Platinum Glitter Frosted; Caronia Colorless Regular

    Of course, you can use other brands and you don`t have really have to use this much colors but for me, I wanted a lot of colors to blend. Really up to you though!

  • Step 2

    Apply a base coat. It helps prevent your nails from turning yellow. (Caronia Nail Hardener & Base Coat)

  • Step 3

    Apply 2 coats of dark blue nail polish. Let it dry for a few minutes. (The Face Shop nail color BL604)

  • Step 4

    Apply small dots of the other colors. You can put all colors at the same time so you can blend them. Don`t put too much, though! It might become too runny and wet and the colors will mix, not blend. (Caronia Black Velvet Regular; Caronia Dare Frosted; Caronia Bliss Frosted; Caronia Platinum Special Frosted)

  • Step 5

    While the dots are still wet, use the colorless nail polish to blend them. Again, don`t put too much or it will become too wet. Use the brush bristles to blend them. (Caronia Colorless Regular)

  • Step 6

    Once you`re happy with the blended colors, let it dry for a few minutes. After, apply a small dot of glittery nail polish for stars. Don`t put too much or it might become too glittery or “starry”. (Caronia Platinum Glitter Frosted) Spread with the brush bristles of the colorless nail polish. (Caronia Colorless Regular)

  • Step 7

    Apply a top coat or simply colorless nail polish to prevent it from easily chipping.
