Happy Friday! Lately I haven't been painting my nails since I've been working on new items and a few orders for my clients. I hand stud all my items by hand and sometimes it's pointless to paint my nails especially when they chip within two days. Forget the bags, the shoes! For the nail polish obsessed, the best accessory for fall is dark and metallic colors. Like you seen before the original manicure for ages the new twist trend is more subtle yet dramatic at the same time. Here I will be showing you step by step how to paint your nails the new twist on the traditional french manicure- a metal style. It's very easy and not messy at all! I hope you enjoy and please send me photos to my email which is on my "contact me" tab on my blog. What do you think of this manicure? Is this a color combo that you would try?

5. Apply a thin coat of black on black nail polish for your tips. Then clean you edges with nail  remover using the paint brush or you can use a Q-Tip.
