World Cup USA Nails


When the Fifa World Cup only rolls around once every 4 years it is completely necessary to celebrate by giving a World Cup manicure to support whichever team you are rooting for. Obviously, I am rooting for the good ol' USA (especially Beckerman #15) An even better reason to sport these nails now is that the fourth of July is quickly approaching and these can double as festive holiday nails as well! Talk about a two-fer am I right? 

Although this manicure looks super difficult, it really is super simple and took me only 20 minutes to accomplish. Thanks in advance for giving this a try (hint hint). You totally won't regret sporting these beauts. 


Ring Finger: Soccer Ball

 Apply a white base
 Create a black pentagon in the center of the nail
 Fill it in and repeat on each upper corner of the nail
Connect the corners with eachother


Middle Finger: USA Jersey Logo

 Start with a base coat and place a piece of tape so that it covers only 1/3 of the nail
 Coat the rest of the nail in white polish
 Remove the tape immediately
 Paint stripes in the blue section of the nail
 In the lower portion of the white section apply three star glitters (you can paint them or just use regular gliter if you don't have stars)
 With a striper and red polish, paint the tip of your nail


Thumb: Red Stripes

 Start with a white base
 Paint two big stripes with red polish and between the big stripes paint skinny ones









Pinky Finger:  Red Glitter 

 Start with a red base
 Apply red chunky glitter pieces
 Any other blue, red, white, silver, & gold glitter you want
(Try to use assorted sizes)
 Add Star glitter if you own some

Pointer Finger: White Glitter

 Start with a white base and add any silver chunky glitter you love
 Add blue, red, silver, and gold star glitter... or just paint stars

Apply a fast drying topcoat to all nails
