Nail Art Tutorial: "Bioman" Inspired Nails

This week's Nail Art Tutorial...I've been inspired by something you promise you won't laugh at ok???  Promise?  Well....it's Bioman!  I'm not an avid Bioman fan but I've watched a couple of episodes!  Ok ok!  I've imagined myself to be Pink 5 and I know their steps!  *laughs* 

The inspiration that I've derived from the Bioman are the colors!  It'll be better if I can draw their masks on my nails right?  But I'm not that Bioman crazy though!  So nope!  *hahaha*


Here's my final Bioman Inspired Nails done on both fingers and toes
I've used the colors that can be seen on their costumes
Main color plus white, black and silver!
Now let's all shout: "BIOMAN!" *does action*




The shades used
from L-R: TFS RD301, BNC 21, L.A. Colors in Static Electricity
Elianto23 Yellow and Orly Cotton Pink


Step 1:
You can freely create a diagonal line or tape your fingernails to create a better-looking diagonal colors of the Bioman costumes.  Do not forget to apply them in order!  (Red 1, Green 2, Blue 3, Yellow 4 and Pink 5)




Step 2:
After applying 2 coats.  Let dry and gently peel off the tape just like photo below.


You'll end up with gorgeous looking shades.  Simple gal can just top this with a top coat and you're ready to go.  For someone like me who wants to go further, continue reading the steps below.


Step 3:
Using the shades of the Bioman Masks, I applied L.A. Colors Art Deco in Silver and create a diagonal line just where the colors end. 


Step 4:
Just below the silver glitter polish, apply another line using L.A. Colors Art Deco in Black.  If you don't have this polish, you can use a regular black polish applied using a think art brush you can find from bookstores.


Step 5:
Continue creating diagonal lines this time with a white polish from L.A. Colors Art Deco in White.


Step 6:
This is the best time for you to soak up your cotton bud with an acetone and clean up excess.


Step 7:
Making sure the lines drawn are dry, top your nail art with your preferred top coat.  I've used Elianto Top Coat in this nail art tutorial.


Viola~!!!  The Bioman Costume Colors inspired nail art for the week!


A closer look on Red One and how I need to clean up the sides for excess!  Top 2 coats of top coat if you want a "glossy" finish!


What's your favorite Bioman Character?
Do you even watch the series?


Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
