Get ready to blow clients away with something chic! See the steps as Sarah Elmaz of Get Buffed Nails shows how to do this snakeskin effect. »
You will need:
a dotting tool
top coat
Bluesky yellow CS012 (Colour Me pretty – Butter Me Up)
Blue/green thermal (heat-changing) polish TC06 (Colour Me Pretty – 50 Shades of Green)
Gel top coat
Step 1: Start with prepped nail (can be done on natural or enhanced nails).
Step 2: Cure 2 coats of a pale colored gel of your choice; I chose yellow.
Step 3: One coat of your darker color (I chose blue color changing). Do not cure.
Step 4: With your dotting tool, add dots of top coat all over the uncured layer. Make sure they are quite close to each other. Use different size dots if you like for effect.
