My Birthday Nails + How Did I Do It (Hufflepuff Inspired)

by Sylden Christine Hena - 9:59 AM

Hello there, my lovelies! I'm sorry, I was inactive for a while I was busy with doing my important businesses and I just had my internet connection last week. Yeah, I'm back at our home here in Iloilo. So, last Wednesday was my birthday, August 7. And if you are curious, I'm now 21. Woohoo! :D

For my big day, I decided to have a simple nail art inspired by the colors (yellow and black) of my house at Hogwarts, the Hufflepuff. I was sorted to Hufflepuff at Pottermore and my username is HeartWitch2443. I have done this little thing to support my house. :)

Since I don't have any badger decoration for my nails, I used flowers instead. Wanna know how I did this? Then, read on..

I used these:

Before anything else, clean your nails and apply a base coat. Then put on a yellow nail polish. I applied 2 coats because mine was pretty sheer.

Using a nail art brush, I've drawn vertical lines on my nails with a black polish. As you can see, mine's not perfect. I know you can do this much better than me. :D

Since my striped nails look like Halloween, I covered it with a glitter nail polish in order to lessen the attention that will given to lines.

I pressed some yellow flower decorations on my nails. These cuties will stick on the polish as long as it's still wet. Just be careful not to ruin your lines. Lastly, apply a top coat, a little bit thick so the decorations won't be removed easily.

And, that's pretty much it. It's not difficult at all. If try this nail art, please send me pictures through my twitter or instagram. My links are on the left sidebar. I don't if I will be doing a birthday haul. What do you think, guys? Let's just see about that. Anyways, before I end this post I just want to share some pictures during my birthday dinner.
