I was due for a fresh set of gel polish this week, and have been craving black and white lately. I don’t usually gravitate towards dark nail colors, because I feel like they make my nails look small and (sometimes) weird. #truenailconfessions. BUT, I’ve been seeing black and white nails all over my feed lately, and it had me wanting it on my own fingers.
Since I try to ride out these gel polish sets as long as possible, I can’t slack on the nail art for my right hand. I figured constellations would be easy enough that I could pull off something passable using my left hand.
I started with two coats of my new favorite black gel polish, Presto #060 Minaccioso. Next, I used Wildflower’s Art Paints in Powder to paint on constellations and stars. Then, I used two coats of gel topcoat to seal the paint details in. Easy peasy!
P.S. They’re all based on real constellations! I wanted to do my zodiac sign, but who knew Sagittarius had so many stars in it?!?!?
