I've tried doing camouflage nails before, but it wasn't exactly the result I wanted. This time I tried a new color and using stamps for all of the "layers". My original attempt at this was based off of soguesswhat11's camouflage tutorial. Here. This still uses her basic idea for creating the camo, but I used all stamps with no free-hand nail art. (It's just not my forte.)
This was super-easy, but pretty involved - I've included a video at the end. In real life, this mani looks 3-D with all of the stamping involved. Love it!
Here's how it came out:
Manicure:
1 coat Julep Oxygen Nail Treatment
2 coats Zoya Kristin
Stamped using Sally Hansen Insta-dri Co-bolt Blue, Brisk Blue, and Blue Me Away BM-222 and Mash 38
1 coat Sally Hansen Hard as Wraps Hard as Nails
1 coat Julep Freedom Polymer Top Coat
I started with Zoya Kristin.
Verdict?
This was a great formula to work with. 2 coats and this dusky sky blue was opaque. This color is a little light for my usual taste, but I think it's a great base for stamping.
Please see the video for step-by-step instructions...
Wishing you amazing manicures,
