How to: DIY newspaper nails
Extra, extra, read all about it; nail art is hot and there's no
doubt about it! From leopard print to snakeskin... and even your
loved one's mug if your name is Katy Perry or Nikki Reed, we're
saying goodbye to basic block colour and hello to some seriously
fun manis!
However, the latest nail art trend lets you keep your finger on
the news - quite literally. Direct from NYC, newspaper-printed
nails are set to be the Next Big Thing - and it's super-easy to
DIY!
Here's how:
Step 1: Apply a neutral nail shade (we love OPI
Samoan Sand, $19.95, 1800 358 999) and allow to dry.
Step 2: Dip each fingernail into some alcohol -
vodka is recommended for best results
Step 3: Press a strip of printed newspaper onto
the top of each alcohol-soaked nail. Peel back slowly.
Step 4: Apply a high-gloss top coat to seal in
the print and voila! You've got all the news, right on your
fingertips.
