New Year’s Eve is full of sparkly dresses and glam shoes—so your nails need so shine just as much! Keep reading to find out how to give yourself a glittery yet classy manicure, perfect for ringing in the New Year with your friends!
For this manicure I used black and silver to keep it fun, but still sophisticated. This included Kiss Nail Art Paint in Silver $7.77), Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Black Out ($5.73), and Sinful Colors Queen of Beauty ($6.39).
Use the black polish as a base coat, making sure it’s completely opaque.
Next we will create a glitter gradient using the silver glitter. Begin with a small amount of glitter on the brush; starting in the middle of your thumb nail, paint a thin layer all the way to the tip of your nail.
Use layers to create an ombré effect by painting another layer of glitter on top of the previous one, but starting closer to the tip instead of in the middle. Keep doing this until the glitter is concentrated at the tip of your nail. Repeat the process on your pointer and pinky nails.
To represent the New Year, we will draw the roman numearls for 15 on the remaining nails. Using the silver nail paint, draw an X and V on your middle and ring fingers, respectively.
And your gorgeous New Years Eve mani is complete!
