Pop Culture Nail Art Megapost



It's amazing what can be done with nail polish, patience and a lot of toothpicks. So here's some of the best pop culture and media related nail art that I've found.

Get ready to feel inadequateCollapse )

Nail discussion post? I will love any of you forever if you can tell me tips on how to not chip your nail polish after one day

if your cuticles are jacked, please don't post pictures. I don't get people who have nail blogs or whatever and their cuticles are gross and nail shape is all fucked up and uneven. put some dame pride into your hobby!

exactly!!

It puts all the art work to waste.

Ugh yes! On my blog, even if my cuticles are on point, I always blur everything but the nail.

i do not have the patience for all of that. if I'm feeling creative, I'll bust out my Konad. That's about it.

I did just buy some dotting tools off ebay, so I'm excited to try those out when they arrive this week.

I am trying to quit nail biting. Not going well

Get UV gel nails. I've been biting my nails for like 20 years and I started getting gels a while ago and I haven't bitten them since. Mostly because with the gel they're so hard that I'd probably break my teeth but also because they look so pretty I just can't bring myself to do it. However, it's kind of backfired and now I'm obsessed with my nails haha...but my hands look nicer than they ever have in my life!

Some of them are the best things I've ever seen, some of them are ugly beyond words, and some of these people have too weird of fingers for me to concentrate on their nail art.

Ugh at people who don't clean up the edges of their polish before posting pictures all over their nail blogs. Always a stupid little annoyance of mine.

I hate fake nails. I just hate the look of them. Nail polish is awesome tho, I love to wear shades of red, purple, green, blue, turquoise...
vonlisbon 2nd-Apr-2012 02:26 pm (UTC)
95% of them just look so obviously fake that it's like... bleh. Kind of defeating the purpose. It's like wearing a wig that is really obviously a wig.

Gold Silk by Rimmel is pretty awesome. I like to use it over the top of other colors a lot too.

i cant stand long nails

unlickdbearwhlp 2nd-Apr-2012 06:59 am (UTC)
The Nicki Minaj ones are beautifully tacky. The Ke$ha ones not nearly enough.

Most of these are a bit sloppy, but A+ for effort.

Seems like just buying a matte polish would save you a lot of hassle/money.
