James Bond Mani

So I'm super excited to go see the new James Bond movie, Skyfall, that just came out, and I of course had to do my nails for the occasion!! This was a fairly easy manicure... takes some patience and time to do the 007 nail stickers, but it's totally worth it. For the black I used Wet N Wild's Fastdry in Ebony Hates Chris and for the white on the tuxedo I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in White On. (For the white on the sticker, I use white acrylic paint.) So anyways, two coats of black, except on whichever finger(s) you want the tuxedo on. For the tuxedo nail, I did two coats of the white in a triangle sort of way, so it wouldn't be too clumpy when I painted the black over it. Wait for the white to semi-dry, then do the edges with the black. For the "buttons" and "bow tie" I used a toothpick with the black polish, but if you have a polish pen, I would probably use that. For the 007, I made my own nail sticker and applied them once the black polish was pretty dry, so it's easier to press down on the sticker for air bubbles. Hope everybody goes to see the new movie!!!
