What you’ll need
1.
Nail polish
2.
Newspaper
3.
Rubbing alcohol
4.
Base coat/Top coat
Start off with a base coat then
paint your nails in a light grey, nude or white
nail polish color. Other colors may be used for this nail art technique but a
grey or white will help the ink from the newspaper show up on the nails much
better.
Let your nails completely dry. One coat will suffice but
remember to not put a top coat on yet.
Pour rubbing alcohol into a small container or bowl and dip
your nail in the alcohol for about 5 seconds so that the nail polish can absorb
the alcohol. Then take a small piece of newspaper and press it on the alcohol-soaked
nail for about 15 seconds. Be gentle but firm enough that the ink from the
newspaper transfers to the nail.
Once you peel the newspaper away from your nail, you may
need to clean up the skin a little bit from excess ink. Just use a cotton swab
dipped in nail polish remover to remove the left over ink.
Continue the process on each nail then seal in the newspaper
ink with a top
coat. A top coat is important for all manicures but especially helps
maintain the newspaper nails manicure for a longer period of time. It will stop
the ink from rubbing off as well as give your nails some extra shine.
This is a fun and easy nail art technique that can be done
on any nail art lover. Have fun!
