company magazine rainbow nail art

I saw a tutorial for these nails in company magazine and just had to try them (thanks for the inspo you wonderful bunch!)

the tutorial is a simple one but if you drink a gallon of tea a day like me I'd recommend you do these before the caffeine shakes kick in!

(if you want these to be really perfect you can always paint a set of false nails and stick them on once dry!)

start with a blue base coat (I used illamasqua nobel) use a white nail art pen to draw on cloud shapes.

next draw in a white rainbow shape emerging from the cloud.

use yellow, pink and green stripes for the rainbow and leave to dry.

finish off by outlining it all with a fine brush or black nail art pen!

I did these quite quickly so I'm not 100% happy with them but I love the design, definitely one I'd do for a festival or day out at the seaside!

have you seen the nail art tutorials in company? tempted to try out any of the others?

back soon!

Ohh these are so cute! I don't think I have steady enough hands to do the black outlines though!
