Neon Rainbow Nails

Supplies:

  • Sheer base coat (I used Butter London Nail Foundation)
  • Neon nail polishes (I used neon pastel shades from KB Shimmer) or neon confetti
  • Nail art brush or nail glue
  • Matte top coat

Instructions:

1. Paint clean, filed nails, with one coat of your favorite sheer base coat.
2. Let dry for five minutes and paint another coat if you want to add opacity.
3. If you have a good nail art brush, use the tip to outline the rectangle at the base of the nail, and then fill in with the color. Use a different neon color for each nail as shown.
4. Alternatively, you can use pieces of neon confetti and place a small amount of glue on the nail in order to adhere to each piece of confetti.
4. To finish, use a matte top coat and seal your nail art design.
