Superman Nail Design!

About a week ago I did a Superman design since Man of Steel is coming out soon and it went along with the title of this blog. I love Superman, I think he is the original superhero because when someone says hero you think of Superman. I'm really excited to see Man of Steel! It comes out June 13 which is so close!
 
 
Something to know about me is that I do like the big name polishes, but I also don't see the point in buying them all the time if you can get colours you love for less money. It just makes sense to me, since I have a very small budget and cheaper doesn't always mean that the polish isn't good. I usually don't use salon brand or designer polishes for special designs because I don't have the money to buy them all the time and if they're really nice I would just wear that single colour.
 
So to do this Superman design, you need blue, yellow and gold polish, plus either a red nail polish pen or a thin brush and red polish. I started with a strengthening base coat since my nails get pretty damaged. After that dried I put two coats of Joe Fresh Periwinkle on every finger. On the ring finger I made pentagon (five sides for those who aren't good at geometry) with Joe Fresh Canary. On the other fingers I did French tips in Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Golden-I. After the yellow is dry, take your red and outline it (I used Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen in Red, it has a slight shimmer) and make the Superman "S" in the middle. Once everything is dry seal it with topcoat and you're done!



Don't forget to go see Man of Steel when it comes out in theatres! And soon I'll try and get another design up here for you!
