Lou Teasdale is One Direction's hair stylist and she's written her own beauty bible The Craft. She totally captured summer vibes with this neon green on a cute almond-shaped nail. Combined with her sunnies, plaits and cute finger tattoo, this look is perf' for festival season, as is her mini doorknocker ring by Holly and Hannah.
To DIY, buff up your nails and pop on a base coat (direct colour on the nail is a big no no). Paint with Barry M Gelly High Shine in Key Lime and a slick of top coat, then hit up our range of Bourjois cuticle tattoos. There you have it – maje Lou Teasdale hands (except yours probably won't then go on to touch Harry Styles' locks, soz).
Top nail Instagram Lala For Nail Art shows us how the colour-popping Models Own Polish for Tans is definitely a #nofilterneeded shade. I'm obsessed with how bright this neon pink is. It looks best with two coats on well-prepped nails. FYI, the glossy finish you see on a lot of nail pics is cuticle oil. Make sure you use it after every mani for healthy looking cuticles.
Emma Boom of Boom Nails London is someone you need to know about. I <3 her use of ultra-fine lines and colour to create designs inspired by famous artists and these Jackson Pollock-esque nails are insanely cute. I love that nail varnish can be applied the same way as actual paint. Hey, YOLO.
Try this look by applying a great white polish and letting it dry. Apply three of your fave colours in small blobs, then grab a straw and blow the colours across your nail. It might take a few tries to master, but once you've got it, seal with a slick of Seche Vite top coat and step back to admire your masterpiece. Oh, and don't forget to charge entry fee when exhibiting your work!
1.Line your nails with petroleum jelly or white craft glue before painting them for an easy cleanup.
2.If you're working on a nail look that's messy, use a cotton swab to rub petroleum jelly like Vaseline on the skin around your nails first. This creates a barrier between the polish and your skin so that after you've painted your nails, you can wipe off the Vaseline and any polish mistakes along with it.
3.Another way to prevent paint from drying on the skin around your nails is to paint around your nail with Elmer's Glue first, and let it dry. Then, paint your nails with polish and peel off the glue when you're finished to clean up.
4.To prevent the tips of your painted nails from chipping, paint two basecoat layers: one on the top half of your nail and the second coat over the entire nail.
5.Paint the first layer of your basecoat polish on the top half portion of your nails only. After your nails have dried, paint a second coat of polish, but this time cover the entire nail as you normally would. This technique will help the polish on the tips of your nails — which are more prone to chipping — last longer.
6.Use a white nail polish as your basecoat to make your nail color pop.
7.Unless your polish is super opaque, the natural tint of your fingers will change the color of your polish. To get the paint's true color, add a layer of white nail polish first, and then go over it with your colored polish.
8.Paint your nail art designs on a plastic sandwich bag first, peel them off, and seal them on your nails with nail art glue or a clear topcoat for easy application.
9.If painting designs on your dominant hand is too difficult, try painting them on a plastic sandwich bag first. Paint a few thick coats of polish onto the plastic, and then add your design on top. After it dries, peel each design off the plastic, and adhere them to your nail with nail art glue or a clear topcoat.
10.Use paper hole reinforcement stickers as a guide for painting a half-moon mani.
11.Place the paper hole reinforcement stickers along the base of your nail, and seal it into place with a bobby pin or a nail art dotter tool. Paint your first coat on each nail along the stickers. Then one nail at a time, paint a second coat of paint, let it dry for a minute, and carefully remove the sticker. Use this tutorial for more tips on a half-moon mani.
12.Give your nails two-tone designs with tape.
13.After you've chosen two different polishes, paint one coat of the lighter polish on each nail, and seal it with a clear topcoat. After it is completely dry, apply two strips of tape over the tips of your nails so that they cross in the middle and create a point. Take the darker of the polishes, and paint a layer over the entire nail and on top of the tape. Let it dry for a minute, and then grab both ends of the tape and slowly peel them back at the same time for the finished look.
14.Use the tip of a pencil eyeliner to place tiny nail art accessories like rhinestones on your nails.
15.When your fingers or tweezers are too big to grab and place tiny jewels, use the tip of an eyeliner or lip pencil instead. The end of a pencil is tacky enough to grip the jewel from above and won't get in the way of your design.
16.Choose an accent finger and tape underneath and around your nail to protect your skin. Next, fill a small paper cup with filtered, room-temperature water. Grab two different colors of paint and add drops of each polish into the cup of water, alternating paints each time. Once you've added a few drops, grab an open paper clip and swirl the layers together to create the design you want. Then, stick your finger into the cup with your nail facing the paint layer. Holding your finger in the cup for a few seconds, use your paper clip to gather the rest of the paint away from your finger. Pull your finger out of the water and clean up the edges for the finished look.
17.Make your nail polish dry faster by soaking your nails in ice water after painting them.
18.Fill a bowl with ice and water, and soak your nails for a few minutes after painting them. The cold water will set the paint and help your nails dry faster.
19.Spray nonstick cooking spray on your nails to help the polish dry faster.
20.Fix a smudged nail by adjusting the polish with the tip of your tongue.
