Diamond Accent Nail Tutorial

You may remember my diamond nail from from my review of the Glitter I collection from Sation here.

Well now you can get that look yourself! Check out my new tutorial!

Mess around with what glitter you use as your base, as well as what color you use to fill in with at the end. Try cremes and shimmers for different effects. Flakies would make a beautiful diamond effect as well!

If you recreate this look using this tutorial, please provide a link back to my blog.


It's pretty simple, but the results look expensive!

    1. Nope! Just go from left to right, top to bottom in the picture, adding each line that is shown. Each 'nail' in the tutorial is a different step, adding one line at a time.

  12. How do you fill in the nail?

  13. The glitter is put down first using the brush from the bottle. Then the black diamond shape is drawn. Finally, I fill in around the diamond shape with black, using a nail art brush loaded up with polish.
