DIY Galaxy Nails

How to get Galaxy Nails



What you need:



Tutorial :
Paint your nails with a base coat. [I used Bonder Orly Rubberized Basecoat]
First you want to paints your nails all black and wait for them to completely dry. 
Here I am using Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Black Out #370

Fist take a wedged sponge and dab a little bit of Zoya Charla #ZP508 on the corner of the sponge.

Take the sponge and dab it onto your nail-- anywhere you like. Just keep dabbing until it becomes sticky and there is no more color coming off.
The next color I'm going to use is Essie Coat Azure #742

Take the same wedge sponge and again dab a little bit of Essie Coat Azure #742 on another corner of the sponge.


Again, take the sponge and dab it anywhere on your nail, but not on top of the Zoya Charla #ZP508 color.You want both colors to be blended. 
The next color is Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Tough Chic #240.
With the same wedge sponge dab Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Tough Chic #240 and repeat the same processes above.
Pay attention, this part is different.
Take Sally Hansen HD DVD #15 and instead of dabbing on the sponge, directly dab onto your nail (anywhere).

Grab your sponge and with a clean corner blend the color that you just dabbed.

 The reason why this step was different was because with glittery colors, it's hard to see the outcome if you dab the color with the sponge compared to directly placing the color onto your finger.
Next paint your nails with NYC Starry Silver Glitter #105.
Finally use any top coat.
I'm using Beauty Secrets Top Coat from Sally's Beauty Supplies

Then your finished!
You have your own Galaxy Nails!
