One thing I have been very impressed with at the olympics this year is the nail art! (gotta say, also impressed with Nathan Adrian!)
People.com had a whole album with pictures of swimmers rocking some nail art to show off their pride for their countries.
Many of the athletes would have at least one nail painted with the British flag, the union jack, a little tribute to London for hosting. So I gave it a shot last night.
Pretty simple really, I used OPI Russian Navy and used the thin nail art brush to do the all the white lines then all the red lines on top.
If you're looking for a more patriotic look I also did an american flag nail for fourth of July
For this I did one solid layer of a drug store brand white then added the red stripes.
Having the red stripes down first helped me have a straight line for the blue.
Then just add some white dots or stars if you can make them small enough.
I did white dots the did tinnny little lines out to create a little bit of a star shape.I did the fire work for the 4th, which is super easy with the stripe brushes and then put OPI Katy Perry collection glitter over it to give it that look like that fire works were exploding.
That's all for today!
