The following video and post covers several days of painting. Creating gorgeous lifelike fingernails is done in multiple layers. The first two layers of purple and pink create what I like to call the "sunset" at the base of the nail. The paint is cured between each layer. Next, I create a modified flesh tone with thinning medium and use that solution to paint the half moons on the horizon of that sunset. At the same time I add the nail tips. Then I cure this layer. (Learn more on my upcoming tutorial: Tips for Perfect Tips.) Finally a dark blush color darkens the top of the nail bed as well as the wrinkles under the nail. Add a few gloss layers for shine and say hello to your perfect baby manicure! Watch the video below to see Colyn and Cadyn getting their nails done.
