How to Make NYC NAIL TECH 🎀 (Queens)
Ingredients:
- 10 press-on nail tips
- Nail glue
- Teal nail polish
- Black nail polish
- Animal print stickers or stencils
- Top coat
- Nail file
- Cuticle pusher
- Cotton ball
- Nail polish remover
Directions:
Prep Your Nails: Start by cleaning your natural nails with nail polish remover. Use the cotton ball to ensure they are oil-free.
Shape the Press-Ons: Use the nail file to shape the press-on nails to your desired length and style.
Apply a Base Color: Paint the press-on nails with the teal nail polish. Apply two coats for a vibrant look, allowing the polish to dry between coats.
Add the Animal Pattern: Once the base color is dry, use the animal print stickers or stencils to create your desired patterns. You can also use black nail polish to paint freehand if you prefer.
Seal with Top Coat: After all designs are applied, finish with a top coat on each nail. This will protect your designs and add shine.
Let Dry: Allow your press-on nails to dry completely for the best results.
