I know this is something totally random but I felt like sharing this here. I hope it useful to some people! :heart: I'm so getting into 3D nail art right now. When I create some more nails I'll have to upload some photos of them.

A tutorial for deco nails. If you want to see the tutorial in the form of a web page you can find it plus larger photos here at my Lolita fashin blog: [link]

Wow, that is SOOOO pretty!! I had to stop painting my nails altogether because they kept breaking and I found that when I left them totally alone THEN they got strong and healthy. *throws out all the "healthy" nail polishes I bought* Using fake nails sounds like a great alternative. :)

For a minute I thought the glue was a pair of batteries... I was like "Uh... I don't wanna use battery acid to look awesome... I think I'd rather be ugly..." XD

That's great! I haven't had much to do with fake nails in the past but as I said I've really found myself loving 3D nail art and wanting to experiment with it.

woah they are soo pretty! I've been looking some good tutorials and stuff on nail art in general, but I guess it's all more about experimenting and making just the same as with art in general. I'm so going to try to do this stuff during summer when i finally have time! Thanks for this tutorial.

In this pouring rain where my heart still beats
I walk my own path of disgrace
I walk my own path of hell
What you can't understand are my scars
That still burn inside me like acid
but maybe tomorrow I'm able to smile again.

They look really pretty - sweet tutorial :) I experiment with my nails a fair bit -real, as they are really strong+ I try and use healtyh nail polish base coats- and if you ever want to try something really cool and clever try Konad nail art- it gives soooo many possibilities :)

Indeed; using fake nails gives me a bit more flexibility with what you can do but I don't wear them all the time.

Great job on the nails (: I've been looking up some tutorials but this one is the clean-cut and simple one I was looking for.

Would you suggest any other type of glue for the rhinestones/pearls?

I know Strapya has a silicone type glue but other than I really haven't experimented much. Superglue could work but I wouldn't recommend anything too weak since you nails take a lot of punishment during day to day activities.
