Newspaper Nails


Taking nails to the next level now means putting words on your nails. Newspaper nails are the new trend that aren't difficult to do on your own and they are a quick design. Sometimes the complicated  nail designs are frustrating and take too long to finish. A plain old boring manicure is never exciting, so why not put some emotions and words on your fingertips. The process is very easy, first you paint your nails a light color such as pink, yellow, blue, nude, or white. You must pick a light color so the black lettering from the newspaper will be visible on the nails. Next, paint your nails with your  chosen color and wait for them to completely dry. Then, you have to pour rubbing alcohol in to a small jar, pour enough to cover your entire nail when you have to place it in the rubbing alcohol. Now cut up 10 small strips of newspaper and make sure they are wide enough to cover your entire nail. Next, dip one dry nail into the rubbing alcohol for about 5 seconds and place the newspaper strip on the nail. Then, dip a cotton ball into the rubbing alcohol and press firmly over the nail for about 10 seconds. Repeat this previous step for all 10 nails. Lastly, paint a top coat over the complete nail design, or else the newspaper design will just wipe off. This newspaper design is one of the fastest ways to get you nails looking great in no time!
