Video how-to: colour blocking nail art
Are you always on the lookout for the hottest new thing in nails? Do you wish you knew of a quick and easy way to create an awesome, show-stopping nail art look? Can’t decide on just one colour?
Then you’ve come to the right place. Colour blocking isn’t just a fashion trend; it’s also taking the nail art world by storm. The results are oh so show stopping and it’s quick and easy – especially if you’re using the right nail polishes.
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polishes are the closest you’ll get to a gel effect without a gel manicure. The shine enhancers are time-released to produce maximum chip-resistance as your nails flex during daily wear and tear and will ensure your digits are still dazzling long after you’ve applied your polish too.
Want to know how it’s done? Simply watch the video above and ensure you’ve got your products ready to go.
FOR THIS LOOK, YOU’LL NEED:
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polish in 546 Get Juiced
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polish in 679 Pennies for Heaven
Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polish 670 Midnight in NY
Sticky tape
Optional
Sally Hansen Diamond Strength Diamond Flash Fast Dry Top Coat
Side note: As the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polishes are a complete manicure-in-one, you don’t need to use a topcoat unless you want a really, really glossy finish.
Which colours would you be most likely to use in your own colour blocking nail art?

Not my favourite colour combination, but it doesn't look as hard as I expected.

I love the idea, but black is not for me. This technique looks great on others though
