Spider Web Nails

This is my purple spider web manicure nail tutorial; two webbed accent nails and a gothic french tip style give a shiny, spooky design perfect for Halloween :)

1)

For this design you only need two colours; a dark shade and a shiny silver polish. You can choose any dark colour you like; navy, black, purple etc - I used purple. The products I used are Barry M #303 Bright Purple and MUA #11. 

2)

Begin by painting all your nails with your dark polish.

3)

To start the web design, carefully paint three thin lines on your thumb nail with your silver polish. The lines should spread out diagonally from the bottom outside corner of your thumb nail.

4)

Next, again using your silver varnish, carefully paint these slightly curved webs in-between each of your diagonal lines close to the top of these lines. If you find your brush too thick you can use a toothpick instead.


5)

To finish off the web design add another two rows of webbing across your diagonal lines. The bottom two should be closer together than the top two.

6)

Repeat these steps on your accent nail to finish off the web part of this tutorial; this accent nail should only have two lines of webbing across as the dimensions of the nail means it'd be too cramped to have three.

7)

The final step in this design is to add the silver french tips to your remaining purple/dark nails; to create a smooth line try rolling your nail slightly toward your brush as you paint.

And this is the finished shiny spider web nail art design :)
