If you’re going through a nail trough — sorry, fashion — at the moment, or just looking for a way to brighten up your desk before heading out into the world again, then the best thing you can do is enhance your natural nail color. This doesn’t mean going all out on the color scheme, it means being a little bit bolder. After all, a million trendy shades are out there — how can you tell a $4 shade from a $50 shade, other than how it looks on your fingers? With these tips, you can look like you’ve gone a whopping fashion mile. Here are a few things to keep in mind when painting your nails, so you can leave your office to wild reviews.
Go for Paint Recipes
Just because you’re painting your nails doesn’t mean you have to use a large tube and break the bank. Many craft stores offer cheap kits that come complete with colors and tools that will definitely impress your co-workers. These picks include do-it-yourself nail art kits that are suitable for every skin tone, as well as budget nail art products. You can also buy a kit at your local home improvement store or DIY supply store, or you can consult a professional. Whatever method of nail art you choose, consider purchasing a peel and stick filling method, as it’s easier to apply, faster and has a better hold on the polish.
Never Remove
Remove is not in the nail art vocabulary. When painting your nails, just leave them in the finished look.

Forget the slab process and let go. Let your natural nail polish set, and then allow the paint to run down your nail. This makes for a shorter drying period and a less pronounced finish. And should you ever need to remove the nail, you just scrape the polish off with cotton balls.
Subtly Play With Your Stripes
Think about paint that will be more eye-catching than your regular nails, and team it with unexpected stripes. Let the stripes fill in the space between the color and your nail. You can do this using a strip of fake nail polish instead of a tube, and you can also change the color, but keep them the same length. When painting, keep your tips relatively simple so your polish will never be impacted.
Forget Set Stones and Standard? Who Needs ’Em?
With just one board (or nail) lined up on the floor of your bedroom, or elsewhere, you’ll be able to create some super-detailed decorations.
Shout Out to the Curator
Don’t think your manicure can go unnoticed. You can now use your nails as a canvas. Before the arrival of acrylics, you used to seal your nails, but now you can make your nails stand out on a regular basis.
When looking for nail art inspiration for your next manicure, remember to think small. There’s a lot of pretty things out there. And, we’re sure you’ll find something for you that will make your next manicure eye-catching.
