Frost On Nails? Create a Window Frost-like Manicure With This TUTORIAL

Hello lovelies,

Today I want to share with you a tutorial that I've created a year ago but never published it. It is from a time when I was creating nail art designs with Bio Seaweed Gel polishes and as I was playing with different marbling techniques, I've noticed that the colours kind of seep into each other. I started to play with the colours a bit more and the final result looked like Jack Frost painted frost on the nail! I loved it and I wanted to recreate this on my nails and wear it :)

Frost On Nails? Create a Window Frost-like Manicure With This TUTORIAL

I've used Bio Seaweed Gel in Twilight #142 and Snow White #101 for the nail art, Bio Seaweed Gel No Sanding Base and Diamond Shine Top and rounded flat brush from my local art supplies store (#6 Daler-Rowney System 3, SY67 Filbert brush).

UK: http://bioseaweedgel.co.uk/
US & rest of the world: http://bioseaweedgel.com/distributors/

And here's how you can do this simple nail design yourself! If you do try it then please tag me as an inspiration, I'd love to see your nails :)

So what do you think? I really like this effect. It looks simple yet interesting and I haven't seen it before so that makes it even more attractive to me! Let me know in the comments ;)

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

Can I ask why you put polish on a bit at a time until its covered vs l3-5 ong strokes from top to bottom is there a benefit your way

Because this is gel polish and it helps prevent bubbles, at least for me that works. because gel polish is applied in thin coats, when I apply from top sometimes the 'colour' runs out towards the end, creating patches and when I go over the patches again it can trap bubbles of air. Does it make sense?

A beautiful one indeed. Love the color and love the amazing technique that you have used. Thanks for sharing the tutorial of this kind of mani.

These look so cool! Very simple, but with a lot of uniqueness to this look! There are so many undiscovered possibilities with gel polishes.
