Merry Mermaid


Merry Mermaids Nail Art

There are a million fish in the sea, but I’m a mermaid :)

Nail Polish

Polish Used:
  • CND Vinylux - Art Basil
  • MoYou London - Ginger Rust
  • Base and top coats
Other Supplies:
  • Bundle Monster stamping plate - BM-XL211
  • Bundle Monster stamping plate - BM-XL212
  • Stamper
  • Nail tape/vinyl
  • Scotch tape
  • Gold nail tape
  • Gold seashell stud

I’ve been obsessed with these halfsies nails lately (see Elegant Easter and High Standards.) This time I decided to mix in some stamping and negative space. To create this look:
  1. Paint the ring finger with Art Basil. For the rest of the nails, use nail tape to divide the nail in half, and paint the tips with Art Basil.

  2. Use gold polish to stamp the designs on each nail. Stamp “The Mermaid Life” on the center of the ring finger. For the other nails, use tape to cover the negative portion of the nail (middle to base). This will prevent the stamping from transferring onto the negative space. Then stamp gold scales over all the teal tips.

  3. For the scale tipped nails, apply a stripe of gold nail tape across each nail to separate the sections.

  4. Add a gold seashell stud to the base of the middle finger.
