I find that when I put eyeshadow on my nails, it sticks better to a matte surface. After I apply the eyeshadow i add a glossy topcoat and it looks great. Hope this helps! ❤

Matte top coat also works well to fix dents in polish! Layer of matte then layer of whatever color you were trying to fix and it fills the gouged out space really well without having to start over again

They look amazing! The thing is that 90% of those aura nails are made on the sticky layer of hybrid gel/gel mani, that's why they look different ❤

It works better with gel because you can apply the pigment into the sticky residue, it’s a lot trickier with regular nail polish like you used but the result is really pretty I like it !

​​​@@icecrab6852 I think they were saying gel polish (to make the eyeshadow stick), eyeshadow, and gel on top of that (to seal the eyeshadow better). The base is just preference imo, and if you want to add another top coat on top of the gel (like a holo top coat or something) it can be regular polish. Gel is for adhesion and sealing. That was really complicated, so: basically, sandwich your eyeshadow between coats of gel, the rest doesn't matter. At least that's what I think the person above you meant

@@coconagenius I grow them out by having them always painted and moisturising my cuticles with almond oil or even just hand cream. Also, I never use nail hardener because I found that when my nails stay flexible they break less than when they are hard. I also file them a bit almost every day to keep their shape. I struggle not to bite them if they’re uneven. They reach the length I prefer in 2 months but normally last me 2 months more or so (at full length) before they break. When one breaks I normally can extend their “life” for a week because they normally break through the side and not in a painful way. Good luck

Subjectively, they look great! Objectively, (given your intention) it is a PHENOMENAL first try. I know near nothing about creating art with this medium but I hope you might consider exploring both polishing this technique as well as exploring the potential of your own. Either/ both way(s), I imagine you’ll execute even better (though almost certainly not to your personal standards/scrutiny as I doubt you’ve evolved THAT far beyond the rest of us.) #progressoverperfection #feelyourart #trustyourself #whatbringsyoujoythough

You could try it by adding a drop of isopropyl alcohol to a bit of eheshadow powder and then dab the color that bleeds out onto nails with a q-tip. Regular nail polish color will need something thinner than eyeshadow particles which can make it bumpy.

Then add the base coat!!! Trust me!! It’s looks really good!!!! then after the base coat add a little bit of the eye shadow. Than top coat.

it looks pretty good in my opinion

Omg, I have moldy eyeshadows that I don’t want to throw away, I’ll give it a try!!!!

*my opinion* THEY LOOK STUNNING! Good job girly 👏

I have done this too! It's really pretty when it's pink or red.

you can also create that effect by putting some nail polish in the middle of a small sponge and dabbing it on your nail 🫶

Try a shimmer shadow and a sponge eye applicator it can give a chrome look❤

I think it looks great

I'm pretty sure these are called "blush nails" in Korea and they were a big trend at one point. I've been looking at this kind of nails and I think you pulled it off masterfully.

I think that is nice 👍 i love this color

They look pretty with those intense colours. It reminds me of when a cartoon character gets their fingers jammed between a door and their hands are all swollen. ❤

THATS THE SAME EYESHADOW PALLETE I HAVE! ITS RLLY GOOD I LIKE IT

I file the area a bit very lightly before i apply eyeshadow there. Or put a very thin layer of hybrid gel to cure only like ten seconds so its sticky a bit. Depends what type of gel youre using. If its regular polish i file. Polygel, etc i quick cure and add whatever glitter, etc on before the top layer

Looks good! I’ll try this with a rubber base coat.

I don't think it's too intense, I think a different colour might suit you better. Maybe lavender or yellow

I LOVE THOSE NAILS

I did it at the tips of my nails and it’s so pretty 😍, I put the eyeshadow on my natural nails instead of my painted nails and it worked much better.

They look so cute I love it

it turned out amazing-!

It gives me Rudolph vibes and “I’ve got a rlly bad cold vibes” in the best way possible. ❤

I tried this and just like you my nail polish also smudged a little like yours. Props to you for not giving up✨

I recommend a gel clear polish or a top coat and then cure it and then but the eyeshadow on so it can stick ❤

as a nail tech this is one of my favorite things to do!! instead of keeping them plain add a bit of glitter and they look much better. i also recommend to do a bluish purple color!!! 💘

I clicked on it because it looked nice!

This made me look at my nails. My henna stained, black sheer polished glossy nails... yes... it's good.

I think it works! Im not the biggest fan of center-of-the-nail styles for some strange reason (just makes my eyes feel weird) but looks good!
