Did you know that?
You just have to press the rhinestones well so it gets embedded to the nail polish and always finish up with a top coat!
Step 1:
Apply a base coat prior to nail polish application. Apply 2 coats of your base polish. I am using The Face Shop's Shimmer Pink (old bottle)
Draw a vertical line of dark purple ELF polish. This does not have to be perfect .
Tip:
You can wet your cotton buds with acetone and wipe those that got into the skin! Checkout the direction on how I remove excess polish.

Step 3:
Using L.A. Art Deco in Silver, apply a thin line in between the dark purple polish and the base polish. This will cover line imperfections!
Step 4:
Press rhinestones, I alternate pink and blues! (click photo to enlarge)
Step 5:
Apply your favorite top coat to protect the rhinestones and nail art!
Now that is easy right?
Come on! Give it a try! You know you can do it!

You can actually add more rhinestones if you've got longer nails!
If you don't have the rhinestones, you can always stop after the vertical lines created! Simplicity is still beauty! :) Do take time to be creative with those nail art designs! Care to show me yours?
Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
Stay finger lickin' good! NAH LOL
