  • This week I've been experimenting with using eyeshadow as nail polish! It's such an interesting idea but I wasn't sure if it would actually work...

    I've been getting a few questions about whether or not the clear coat gets shadow in it so I thought I would address that here! I was wondering the exact same thing, but surprisingly, the shadow didn't gunk up the brush at all like I thought it would! There was a very slight trace of shadow on the brush when I was done but it didn't turn the clear coat green at all!

      I like my eye shadow palettes too much more than I like nail polish so I would never do this. Nor would I, like I have seen some UA-camr do, destroy my palettes to make pigments for slime.... which just goes to show that you can always take bright shiny colors and mix them into a muddy gray or brown. 🙄 I have enough nail polish to not do this. I do make my own nail polish colors by mixing half bottles together, I make a lot of mauve and lilac that way. Lilac is my best nail color.

  • @scottandlindareed2534

    Use your finger to apply the shadow. Using circular motions, burnish the shadow onto your nails. I feel like the warmth from your skin helps to melt the eye shadow onto the nail better.

    This is so cool! I recently mixed a ground-up glitter eyeshadow into a base coat and made a very cool polish, but that involved permanently destroying that shade (OK in this case - too much glitter fallout). I love that you can do this with shadows you actually like using without sacrificing them!

  • @sock-boi8166
    @sock-boi8166 3 роки тому +1

    You can do a really quick ombré nail with loose glitter or metallic pigments too. Start by painting the nail with the polish color of choice then apply a little pile of loose pigment to the skin at the base of the nail, while polish is still wet, blow it off gently and the pigment will catch in a higher concentration at the base of the nail and less at the tip creating an easy ombré. Let dry, apply a top coat and wash hands when done to clean the excess pigment off the skin. It’s kinda messy but a great way to use old eyeshadow pigments. Makes it look like you put in a lot more effort than you really did too lol

    Don't get hung up on the applicator.... you can use anything to apply the powder...your finger, a makeup brush, q-tip, etc. If it looks to sheer or patchy...you can add another layer of polish and powder. You can also mix the shadow in with clear polish and paint it on.

    I’ve painted my nails this way but with pressed glitters and I don’t know how I didn’t think of doing it with normal eyeshadow?? I just tried it with my Maybelline Knock Out highlighter and WOW. Not only did it take me like two seconds to do my nails, they look great! I did one hand and didn’t wait for it to dry before I went in with the powder but be sure to tap gently so you don’t disturb it. I found if I waited too long, the powder wouldn’t stick as well. A good base coat also makes a difference too! I also used my fingers to apply the powder.
