I was invited to have a manicure at the launch of 'Diamond Digger Saga' to interview Sophy Robson on her latest nail art designs. The Nail Art Sophy had designed was inspired by the game itself. I asked her to share her tips & tricks for Nail Art with me! These have helped me out a whole bunch, so I thought that I would share them with you too…

1. Have some vaseline handy
Place vaseline onto a cotton bud and wipe it gently around the skin of your nails. This will act as a simple barrier between the nail polish and your skin, which you can wipe away once your nails are dry.
2. Don't forget the tips of your nails
When applying your Nail varnish and top coat, make sure to apply it to the very tips of your nails to prevent the polish from chipping away earlier.
3. Make your own Nail Art tools
You can play around with old erasers to create your own stamps. Cut shapes like stars into strips of tape to make a stencil or pop some glittery nail polish onto a sponge and dab it to the tips of your nails. There are plenty of ways to make your nails look good!
4. Speed up your nails drying time
If your impatient like me and cannot wait for your nails to dry, dip your painted nails into ice water. The cold temperature of the water will speed up your nails drying time.
5. Undo your mistakes
If you do paint over your nails and onto your fingers, use a nail correcting pen to undo your mistakes and make your nails look super flawless.

The Vaseline tip is something I will be trying! I'm quite a messy nail painter so this is the ideal tip for me to try out. Thank you! Your manicure looks lovely by the way :) xx

ReplyDeleteI've recently got in the habit of doing the end of my nails, makes all the difference! Great tips :) I must try the vaseline thing, I normally just use a cotton tip to tidy up.

ReplyDeleteI don't have any tips but the design is gorgeous and the number one tip I will have to use because I am very messy and always getting the varnish onto my skin!
