Our Opinion
We must admit, we were a bit skeptical when Dramaticmac first approached us with the idea of showcasing her favorite false nails application technique. After all, we are all about parenting tips and tricks, not beauty tutorials. But after seeing the stunning results of her DIY nail job, we couldn’t resist sharing her secrets with all of you!
So, without further ado, let us walk you through the step-by-step process of applying false nails at home, Dramaticmac style. And trust us, you’ll be loving your newfound nail game in no time!
Step 1: Gather Your Supplies
First things first, you’ll need to gather all the necessary supplies for your at-home nail salon session. Dramaticmac recommends starting with a set of high-quality false nails, nail glue, a nail file, and some nail polish for extra flair.
Step 2: Prep Your Natural Nails
Before you can start applying those fabulous false nails, you’ll need to prep your natural nails. Start by removing any old polish and filing your nails to your desired shape. This will ensure a smooth surface for the false nails to adhere to.
Step 3: Size Up Your False Nails
Next, it’s time to size up your false nails to your natural nails. Dramaticmac suggests laying out all the false nails in front of you and matching them to the size of each of your natural nails. This way, you can ensure a perfect fit for each nail.
Step 4: Apply the Nail Glue
Once you have your false nails sized up and ready to go, it’s time to apply the nail glue. Dramaticmac recommends applying a small amount of glue to the back of each false nail and pressing it firmly onto your natural nail. Hold each nail in place for a few seconds to allow the glue to set.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
After all of your false nails are securely in place, it’s time to add some finishing touches. Trim and shape the false nails to your desired length, and then paint them with your favorite nail polish for an extra pop of color.
And there you have it, folks! You are now the proud owner of a fabulous set of false nails, courtesy of Dramaticmac’s expert guidance. So go ahead, flaunt those new nails with confidence and show the world just how fabulous you truly are!
