TEXTURED NAIL


Wearing: Uslu Airlines white polish, Backstage talon cuff.

Sometimes I find nail polish to be a bit too perfect and glossy looking. I love the look of a white decaying textured wall, so I thought I would try and translate it into my nails, just for fun. This was actually something we did for the SS13 show, painting the nails and then sponging it off for a more lived in, rough and ready feel. The trick is to wait until it’s almost set, then use a sponge to heavily dab into the varnish.

  2. So chic! I want to try this with my black polish! I’ll probably just end up in a mess though.

    1. Yeah, at first I used any old sponge and ended up with specs of dirt embedded in the white. Not chic. You could use anything to give it a rub though.

  3. that talon bracelet is aweesome. need it!

  4. I have nails like this all the time, since I’m not able to wait until it’s dry to get dressed or touch something…and I always unwillingly end up with messed up, textured nails! x

    1. Haha, my toenails always end up this way. Too impatient to wait to put my tights on!

  5. Love the cuff
